Sir

I have the info somewhere at work, will try to get it posted first of the week.

If I remember correctly, it has 3.3-3.5 v ttl signals, so you will need a ttl-rs232 converter ( several of the maxim products will do) that is 3.3 volt compatable, some of the 5volt ic's don't switch well @ 3.3v

I'll try to get the data up later...

The serial connector is a 1/8 stereo connector, tip= RX data to radio, ring= TX data from radio, sleeve= gnd. As I referenced earlier, the internal supply is nominally 3.3 volts, so you will need a TTL (3.3v) to RS323 converter. I have used a maxim part (they have several that will work with 3.3v), you just need 1 TX and 1 and one RX channel. Their data sheets should provide basic hook-up information. Depending on the device you use, you may have to provide an external supply to run the converter if you can't get enough power from the serial port.

good luck
