[ICOM] IC706 to Laptop Interface

[JOE]

Has anyone used a Bluetooth serial adapter?  This might come in handy with 
some of the new laptop computers that do not have a serial port and are 
Bluetooth equipped.  This would also break the wired "lightning path" 
between your radio/TNC and your laptop computer making a nice isolation 
device between rig and radio.
