[Elecraft] KCR2 with 2 radios, some questions

If you use TRX-Manager to control the two radios, you can assign a serial port that will act as the "rig", outputting a signal that the KRC2 can be connected to. I forget the name of the utility that does this, but it's in the TRX menus.

I also have a free utility on my website that does the same thing, making a serial port look like a Kenwood radio and following the freq of TRX-Manager though OLE. I originally designed it for use with SteppIR controllers. It's called LP-StepLink.

Subject: [Elecraft] KCR2 with 2 radios, some questions


I'm considering the acquisition of a KRC2-unit, but I'm not sure it will
fill my needs in my specific contest configuration.
I want to use the KRC2 with a K2 with a KPA100, a KAT100 and a linear
(SB220) as first radio, another transceiver as second radio, a
PC-contest-program (TR-log or similar), antennas swiching-relais (to switch
antennas back and forth beetween the two radios) and other switching devices
for keyer and headphones.
My question : is the KRC2 the unit I need ?
Another question : the KRC2 manual mentions a "daisy-chain" to couple the
KTA100 to the KRC2. What is this ? Another word to say parallel connecting ?
Thank for your help
