Ken,

 Congrats on getting your Pi2 up and running. There is a lot of information on the hamvoip.org web page especially in the how-to section. 

If you want to see what devices are connected and where on the USB chain do -

[root at alarmpi ~]# lsusb

Bus 001 Device 011: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter
Bus 001 Device 010: ID 0d8c:000c C-Media Electronics, Inc. Audio Adapter
Bus 001 Device 009: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMC9514 Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

In this case I have two USB audio FOBS connected. That is about max for the RPi2. You can plug in other things as you mentioned on the other ports.

There is a section in the setup on how to connect two radio ports. It is important to follow that and also mark the ports once you are done as the devices need to be plugged into the ports that were configured and remain there.
The setup only configures the first node. The second node remains port 1999 and can be configured to your node manually using nano as per the docs.

We are here to help so if you have a problem don't hesitate to ask.
