If you are using a digikeyer you should be able to make it work Set one port for radio control and the second for PTT. Whatever port in the digikeyer is setup for PTT you will need to set that on the first pane of the Fldigi radio config "Hardware PTT" once you do this you should be all set.

Perhaps FLDIGI would need to comm ports to configure, one for rig control and another for PTT. Perhaps by NOT clicking the USE RIGCAT option the Digikey would do the PTT. PTT IS achieved by pressing the "test" button in the Microham device router , so software control of PTT for the 706MKII can be achieved.
