Yes you can. I use one USB connection to a SignaLink to an FT817nd and another direct USB connection to my IC7300.
I have two shortcuts on the Desktop... one fires up WSJT X in WSPR mode and connects to the FT817, and the other does the same for the IC7300. Works a treat!

If you want to know how to set up the shortcuts, let me know. I can't do it at the moment as I am using a tablet to talk to you.

Cheers

Went down the low-tech path using a USB switch between the two Signalinks. Works well but I have to close and re-start WSJT-X after doing the switching to prevent the waterfall from freezing. Don't know why that happens but it is a minor issue.

Now have digi modes available 160-10m on the FTdx1200 and 6m to 70cm on theĀ  FT847 Big Grin
