So far I've received two "off-list" responses to this query.  One 
said it was possible but gave no details.  The other said that in 
non-Pegasus mode the serial port could only be used for firmware 
updates.  Would anyone like to go "on-the-record" with a response and 

enough details to know what codes are used, if this is possible?  
I've heard that the OMNI rigs use ICOM-compatible codes?  Is this 
what the Jupiter would use in non-Pegasus mode?   Thanks for any 
further clarification anyone can give.
