[Scan-DC] Serial cables

[ka3jjz at netscape.com]

  Ron if we take Rick's suggestion re ribbon cables, the 895 doesn't use hardly any pins at all; I don't remember the pins offhand, but my FAQ on Strong Signals has them...

  Of course, the obvious question is why do you need such a long length?

Subject: [Scan-DC] Serial cables

Hello FM's
My name is Ron and I have been a lurker on this list off and on for
quite awhile.I am getting started up again and I have a question to
ask.I have a couple of old radios that I am trying to connect to my
puter.The first is a Bearcat 895 xlt and the second is a Rat Shak pro
2035 with a OS board.I am having trouble finding serial cables in the
length I need {15' to 20'}.I would appreciate any and all help.Thanks in
advance.
Ron in Hyattsville.
