[ICOM] CI-V Cable.

[Dave Edwards]

I think the interest lies in the fact that the Rat Shack cable has one end 
that plugs in to an ICOM, and the other end plugs in to USB....No adapters 
or level converters required....all is included in the one cable.
I have that cable also.....just don't know where I put it...as I'm all set 
up with old fashioned RS232 to USB, and Icom level converter.

....Dave
