I don't think that will work, Paul. The Z3801 is designed for the VT receiver and uses commands that are not supported by the M12 or the SSR. I believe there has been discussion on this in the past.

Now, maybe with a bit of arm twisting, whining and grovelling we could get Synergy to write an emulator for the VT instead of the M12. Since they've already done the M12, it might not be a lot of extra work to do the VT. Of course, an adapter board would be required to deal with the physical differences. I don't know if they already have one.

Not to hijack the thread. I purchased a ssr and have not rcvd it yet. But
my simple interest is to if needed replace the rcvr in my z3801. There have
been threads on time-nuts that these rcvrs do fail with age.
My belief is that though the connector on the 3801 may be different and it
is 5V, essentially connecting the 1 pps TX RX data and power should allow
this to replace the older rcvr.
Am I on the right track?
As a longer term goal and question does this new rcvr actually improve a
3801s stability?
Thanks

I had a Motorola M12+ all hooked up with a RF pigtail and data header so I
just unplugged the Motorola and plugged in the SSR-6t.

The data connector was purchased from digikey several years ago and the
details have been lost in the dust.

However it looks like

I'm unhappy with the one I'm using as the contacts spring pressure is weak
against the connector pin -- I will have to consider looking for a more
"firm" fitting data connector.

The RF pigtail was also obtained years ago from data-alliance.net - their
P3B adapter cable.

Just curious,
what connector/pigtail/adapter board did you use to access the 2x5 1.27mm
pitch connector on your SSR-6T.
Thanks,
