[amsat-bb] Re: IC-910 Data Connections

[w4upd]

I am using that very arrangement. However, I am using the Yaesu CT-39A 
cables since they were cheap and have the same mini-din connector. The 
xmit is not a problem since the same pin on the IC-910 is the same for 
either speed. However, I tied the 1200 and 96000 rx leads together and 
since you can't do both speeds at the same time, I found no problems 
with that configuration and no interactions. I am also using a DSP2232 
that I use to use on my Kenwood TS711/811.
