Re: [amsat-bb] IC-821H Level Converter

[n2hv@xxxxxxxx (Jerald R Malin)]

Ken:

The CT-17 consists of one MAX232 IC, costing about $5. There is not much
else in the box, other than a couple of caps ans some minature phone
jacks and a 25 pin D connector.

Seems a travesty to pay over $100 for that unit.
