[TenTec] HRD and computer control for OMNI VI ver.3

[Ken Brown]

I have both a model 301 remote knob and computer serial communications 
connected to the DB-25 connector on my Omni VI, and it works fine. I had 
to make a 'Y' adapter with three 25 pin D connectors.  If you need exact 
pin to pin wiring instructions I can give you that information easily, 
since I never got around to putting connector shells on it, I can see 
where every wire goes. Just let me know and I'll email a wiring list to 
the reflector.
