LWhen you operate through your PC's USB port and the IC-7610, and connect a second transceiver to another PC USB port, a short "SEND" or "Keying" signal will be sent from the first transceiver. Therefore, we recommend that you do not connect a second transceiver to a USB port of the same PC. Or, always turn OFF the transceiver power before you connect a USB cable. 80
