Unless the outputs of the two devices were relays, open collector transistors or tristated devices, it wouldn't work too well hooking two outputs in parallel. I can't find any documentation on the LDG part to see what pins it uses. The Yaesu manual is extremely vague as to what the functions of the pins are. I guess they didn't want you to use it for anything other than Yaesu options. Yaesu is bad about that.
