No, but you're doing one :)

All Icoms can be controlled by the PC without user intervention. Just 
turn the radio on and plug it in, the PC will initiate the proper 
procedures and detect the model number.

Please see the relevent FAQ entries:

Note that the V8x driver doesn't (seem to) get much use, so you may run 
into trouble. Be prepared to help with a little debugging :)
