Is Flex 6XXX with IC-2KL/LDG AT-600 Pro 2 Integration Possible?

I'm considering joining the Flex world but would like to integrate my legacy Icom IC-2KL amplifier and LDG antenna tuner. Is it possible to integrate these devices with the Flex 6XXX hardware to run as seamlessly as they do with my Icom transceiver?

    Tim,
    Good morning and thank you for passing this along so promptly.

    It looks as though the IC-PW1 is supported although the IC-2KL is not listed. Also, I was planning to run the FLEX from a Mac. Do you know of any Mac native-compatible options?

    Much appreciated!

    Mac-native control for my Flex 6700 via SmartSDR for Mac works very well, as does the ios version on the iPad

    Buzz, very glad to hear! My question is can I control my Icom IC-2KL using the Mac/FLEX 6XXX? It turns out that my old IC-2KL has the 12/10 meter conversion and those bands are only selectable via CIV interface.

    Adam. Ran across this post while searching for another bit of info. I am running this combo currently. Unfortunately I’m a bit late to provide answer for solution - today is 09/14/2025. Hi.

    I have a schematic of design my son provided showing interface to IC-2KL. It uses the USB cable interface on my 6600M and a USB bit cable available from Flex. Consists of 2 IC’s and a few resistors and provides necessary band voltage, and 8V reference voltage required. Schematic available if you still have need.
