The manual posted seems to say that the FT-100D has both types, the
Yaesu 8-pin (mini DIN, I assume) as well as the "standard" 6-pin
mini-DIN "DATA" jack.  See WA8LMF's page at the link I posted for his
commentary on the standardness of this standard.  :-)

I am, as I type, trying to figure out why I can't get audio from
either the Main or Sub DATA jacks of my IC-910 into the computer's
audio ports ...  Since the builder of the breakout box for said ports
is ... me ... this is not a surprise!
