Hi folks,
Was wondering if anyone has seen a schematic for one of the programming cables of the VX8.
Since it's a USB cable, I figure they just bring all the lines into the
mic connector. Wouldn't be difficult to jury-rig a cable to program
the box with some pogo pins, etc.
Also, has anyone compared the G4HFQ software vs the RTsystems?
You probably see where I'm going with this... I don't need to program
the radio all that often, and can't justify the price of the RTsystems/cable.
The G4HFQ software looks pretty good, price wise, and seems to have good reviews.
Maybe if somebody has a cable, they could ohm out the usb end vs the mic connector.
Thanks to all & all the best for the new year.
