Carl,

I recall from the packet days and my old Mac that the modem cable would NOT
work with the PK-232 TNC. It required a special wired cable that was
provided by AEA.  I really don't recall what was different but something
tells me Chris gave you a good tip to double check the cable.

I do not have a PK-88 manual or wiring diagram.  Post something to one of
the ham newsgroups and you should be able to find a PK-88 owner with a
manual. Try

rec.radio.amateur.digital.misc

or

rec.radio.amateur.antenna  (excellent group with lots of readers)
