Re: [amsat-bb] OT: ICOM IC-PCR1000

Chow, as far as I can determine the serial cable is a plain ordinary one.  Mine
came from an unknown source but is a simple DB9 to DB9 device.
     Your question regarding using the 9600 port on the PCR-1000 for 38k4 is a 
good one.  I'll be interested in what you find.   Cliff K7RR
