I notice that SatPC32 did not set my FT-817 into Split mode. I assume that's because it recognizes the 2-radio setup and won't be operating semi-duplex with one radio.
Correct?

Correct, the FT-817 will serve as transmit only. You can lower the volume all the way. As for CAT delay, no need on radio 2. I have radio 1 at 20.
You will need to calibrate interval, then the uplink for every satellite using the CAT menu. My interval is set at 50 for SSB/CW, 500 for FM.
