The second half of this sentence is incorrect. You can do radio control on the USB port at the same time as you are using the USB audio codec in the radio without the need for any port sharing program. The USB audio codec is functionally independent of the COM port. The need for a port sharing program like LP Bridge arises only when you are using the same COM port from more than one program at a time. In contrast, unlike the COM port which cannot be shared between programs, you can use the audio codec from multiple programs simultaneously (e.g. multiple RTTY decoders decoding the same audio signal in parallel). 73, Rich VE3KI ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
