Absent any first-hand experience, I think I'll try manual programming for local 
repeaters, and if that gets too tedious, I'll just order the BlueMax49ers cable.

I might be able to save a few bucks by buying a cheaper cable, but I'd rather 
pay a bit extra to get a good quality cable the first time... (the radio did 
come Rwith an RT-Systems cable from 20+ years ago, but it wants a 9 pin serial 
connection...)

Thanks for the responses,

Ken, N2VIP
