Re: [TenTec] What model does tentec start with using computercontrol?

The Omni VI and VI+ use regular RS-232 serial communications. If you 
have a regular serial port on your computer you do not need any level 
conversion. The pins used on the 25 pin D connector for TX data, RX data 
and data ground on the Omni VI are probably not standard, so you may 
need to build your own cable.

(excuse me, I guess todays hams don't build dipoles or install 
connectors on their coax, so I guess you'll have to buy one)
