<div dir="ltr"><div>Personally I think it's much more reliable to connect band decoders directly to radios, rather than relying on software to generate it. But maybe you using a TS-590S with no band data output available for automatic antenna switching without a computer.<br></div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">I've previously mentioned that pins on the LPT port may be used for band data outputs, but only for the "active" radio I think, so that doesn't really work for SO2R, but should work OK for multi-op with one radio per computer. Adding a PCIe or ExpressCard LPT port to each computer should be cheaper than adding a u2R to each computer, if all you need is band decoding. LPT port also gives you CW and PTT and many other useful pins all on one connector, not just band data.</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature">73,<div>Bob, N6TV</div></div></div>
