Tom,
Radio Shack 20-546 works fine and I find in stock in the stores. Look in the scanner area. Comes with right drivers on CD
The older 20-047 models are fine too.
Be sure to use the stereo to mono adapter that comes with it and plug the mono plug into the CI-5 connector of the radio.
Ive used this on many radios of these models:
IC-910H IC-9100 IC-703 IC-7600
Your mileage may vary...
(With a F stereo 1/8" to M 8pin mini din wired properly this USB adapter works for FT-817 also...)
Thanks, Mike W4UOO

Hello to the group……..
Does anyone have the specifics on how to setup two IC706 MKII-G’s for satellite ssb/cw operation (duplex).
I’ve done a bit of browsing and read the manual but remain confused on the hardware needed when using my Compaq laptop (no serial port), only USB’s.
Any advise would be appreciated.
