[ICOM] IC-7600 interfaced to SteppIR and Logging program

[Bill Jourdain]

I'm new to Icom radios but old to SteppIR.  I've used the SteppIR controller
with the Yaesu FT-2000 and the Flex-3000.  I've used a "Y" cable to allow
the FT-2000 and my logging program to simultaneously read the band and
frequency output to track the radio.  I've done the same thing with my
Flex-3000 using the DDUtil software designed for this purpose.

 

The SteppIR web site states that a "Y" cable is not necessary for the
SteppIR and a logging program to simultaneously track an Icom radio.  I am
about to get an IC-7600 and can't see how this would work without some sort
of "Y" cable.

 

Does anyone on the list have experience interfacing the IC-7600, SteppIR and
logging program as I have described?  I use ACLog for logging.

 

Any help to this Icom "newbie" would be appreciated.

 

73,
