Hi Mike, there are several third-party replacements for the now unavailable IF-232C module that is needed on this and other early Kenwood rigs. Most faithfully replicate the original IF-232C, some may not. The manual is almost certainly correct, the reporter, if he is correct, almost certainl

The output of the 6 pin connector is 5 volts ttl. And it does work. My 450 died, but I used it as recently as 2 years ago. Aug AG5AT Sent from my iPad > On Feb 8, 2021, at 12:46 PM, John Brooks wrote: > >  > The 80s standard Kenwood 6 pin CAT interface used with the IF-232C level > conv

The 80s standard Kenwood 6 pin CAT interface used with the IF-232C level converter has CTS on pin 4, and RTS on pin 5.  TX (out of the radio) is pin 2, RX is pin 3. http://www.radiomanual.info/schemi/KENW_ACC/Kenwood_IF-232C_user.pdf John N9ZL On 2/8/21 1:17 PM, Black Michael via wsjt-devel wrot

The dude said "manual is wrong". Trying to get more information on serial cable to see if that's the cause. Old thread noticed a difference between cable types on a 450.  Might have to do with RTS/CTS wiring differences and whether the cable supports hardware flow control. https://wsprnet.org/dru
