FWD: Re: [WriteLog] Is WL+IC706MKIIG+W5XD Multi+ working for you?

[Jim Idelson]

Mike,

You asked the right question. With help from KV1W and K1NU, I determined that 
the power running the CI-V interface cable [K1NU's fantastic cable product] 
uses power from pin 4 of a standard RS232 port [DTR, I believe]. The output 
RS232 from W5XD Keyer to the radio does not pass this signal through, so there 
is no power for the interface cable. I jumpered +5v to pin 4 on the W5XD board 
and the problem is solved.

Thanks!

Jim K1IR

What are you using for a CI-V interface?
