Happy New Year

I just received my keyer and am attempting to interface it with my Icom
775DSP radio. I am soliciting comments from anyone who has interfaced an
Icom radio with the W5XD Multi-Keyer.

The cable end which interfaces with the keyer radio port needs to be a
female DB-9.  The RS-232 port on the rear of the Icom 775 appears to be
a 0.125 mono jack.

In summary, is there a cable available to make this matchup?  Or have
others on this website made their cable?  If I need to make the cable,
what DB-9 pins should be connected to the tip and sleeve of the male
mini-plug at the radio end?
