[TowerTalk] Yaesu G-8000 DXA controller with G-450 rotor

[Herbert Schoenbohm]

Thanks Dan as I am starting to get somewhere with this. All the cable 
pins seem to match but Ii will do some more comparison of the two 
circuits to make sure. Although Pin #1 on the G-800DXA is there I seen 
no mention of it on the 450.  I think it is voltage going upstairs to 
the rotation pot however.
