Bill,
Thanks for the pics and ideas on operating the 253 remotely. I found a 9423, but, I am also thinking about building a cable, similar to yours, for the 253 that includes the remote tune button and a "ready" LED. The manual shows that pin 15 is the reomote tune input and pin 9 is the "ready" LED. A 3 conductor pigtail bulit into a 10 conductor interface cable ought to take care of these 2 functions.

When hooking up the 253 & Herc, I needed a remote tune button for the 253, so I used the >one spare conductor ( or I made one a spare)... and use that new button to trip the tune >function on the 253.( which is also up higher)..

In order to prevent blowing up stuff, i have an ant lockout . When the 253 selects an antenna, >that antenna is unavailable to another radio. I placed another wafer on the antenna switch of the >253,,, which goes to my top ten devices switches... this and the next 5 pixs....
