I read up on that N6BIL emulator box, it appears its' main purpose is to emulate an FT-847 for software that does not support the 736.
This won't solve your manual tuning issue.
A local buddy that uses a 736 does the manual tuning using the tuning buttons in SATPC32. He is seriously considering using 2 radios for transponder SAT's The 736 for transmit and a another radio for receive.

Thanks for all the responses on the FT-736 and the pointers to the pic hardware emulator.
Just to be clear, does the N6BIL emulator allow the manual tuning of the FT-736?
It would seem that the lack of the ability to tune is a significant problem to making contacts.
