I have installed the Logitech K780 w/3 Unifying receivers. I had to
come up with two more unifying receivers (very small USB unifying
receiver dongles) as the keyboard only comes with one in the box.
Amazon or Logitech sells them. Best Buy did NOT. One dongle for the
computer and one each for the Elecraft radios. This setup allows me to
control the shack computer and two radios. It eliminates a USB switch
and 4 USB cables behind the "wireless" operating station. The keyboard
has three white keys at the top left for selecting the device you
want... radio or computer. It's a little tricky setting it up and you
MUST use the Logitech Unifying Receiver software to set it up. Not sure
if there is any Apple s/w for this keyboard. IMHO, the documentation on
how to do all this is not very good. The On/Off power switch for the
keyboard in on the right edge towards the front of the keyboard. Took
me a while to find it since there wasn't any useful documentation as to
exactly where it was on the keyboard and the power has to be cycled to
get the keyboard paired with additional unifying receivers. Bottom
line: works great once it's all set up.
Thanks for the recommendation Jack.
