Yes, that's how it's supposed to work. Here's the issue...I'm using a TenTec Omni 6, and interfacing it to the computer (and Logic) via a USB/RS-232 converter. There's a second port on the radio to use Icom CI-V control, but you can't use both ports at the same time as best I can tell, so I can't see a way to get the decoder to interface to the radio and still have the radio interfaced to Logic. If I could address the band decoder with USB/RS-232 via Logic, that would fix the issue. Of course this assumes that Logic would pass that band data in that manner via one of the setup menu interface selections.
