Tom,
as Paul wrote already change the Icom address of one of the IC-706MKIIGs
and enter the two addresses in the "Radio 1" section of menu "Radio Setup".
You can connect both radios to a single Icom CAT cable by using an
Y-adapter on the radio side of the CAT cable. Make sure that the CAT
cable works on Windows 7 and 8, see the reply of Mike, W4UOO.
When the program starts the radio with the first of the two addresses
will run as the RX.
In menu "Radio Setup" check the option "Autom. RX/TX Change". The
program will then automatically change the roles of both radios as RX
and TX. when you switch between u/v and v/u sats and you don't need to
switch the 2m/70cm antennas between the radios.
Leave option "Satellite mode" and all other options in the menu un-checked.

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.
