[1000mp] RTTY Interface Help

[Tad Williamson]

Ted, I'm using K4ABT's interface (RASCAL) and cable
and it works great.  I use MMTTY for software.  If you
get the RASCAL, the cable you want is the RFT4RY (1
cable is included in the price)for direct interface to
the RTTY port on the 1000.
The good thing about the RASCAL (and other interfaces
I'm guessing) is you can change the cable and use the
packet port on the 1000 or interface it to other
radios.  It's only $40.  Great deal (at least in my
case).  I think additional cables are $19.95.
here's the link to Buck's page:

Good luck
