[ICOM] IC-2AT PL encoder

I gutted my old IC-2A.
Indeed it IS a Com Spec unit  (sorry all!!)
But, of course an outdated one  :-(

Com Spec's web site has it as a ....
9610 SS32M

It is a Fax on Demand list, but when I get down to the bottom of the list 
(where the 9610 is) It will no longer
allow the item to be highlighted and downloaded.

No switch on the unit, so I have no idea how I set the PL back 
then...probably soldered something???

Anyone know how I can find info on the SS32M??

....Dave
