Re: FC40 connecting cable


 

Bill,

After looking at the FT-857 and FC-40 schematics, I see that the DIN-8 cable is straight-through.?

Good Luck and 73,
Eric / K4PYR?

Hi, recently got an FC40. As you know the connecting 8 way cable is short, and I'm going to make another much longer one.
My simple question is - how is the cable wired - is it just straight through (ie pin 1 to pin 1 etc?). I bought an 8 way AV cable with the correct mini din plugs (so I don't have to wire up these fiddly plugs - I've done it in the past but it is so easy to melt them!). The AV cable is wired straight through but I don't really want to try it without knowing!
I can of course check and compare with an ohm-meter but would appreciate comments please.
Cheers!
