I'm looking or some programming software for my RS Pro-83, I know theres a few in the wiki page and I have the freeware one, but I'm wondering if there are any others.
Thanks

Hi,
Have you tried this one yet?

It also allow you to import information from RadioRaference

No I haven't, looks interesting though. Like I said above I have gotten the freeware version of Load83 from one of the yahoo groups, but its confusing as hell, I followed everything that the manual said and it gave me problems.
Well I think I found out one of the problems, I have the wrong programing cable, it calls for the 20-289 and I bought the 20-049 today, don't think I'll return it though as it was only $1.06 with tax, cheapest thing I have ever bought from Radio Shack.

Good luck on finding the 20-289 they are very few and far between...........Hoser
This may be the wrong forum to ask about it in, but it goes along with this. Its, talked about in the manual for Load83 that you could use a home made cable, would anybody have any information on this.
Cool thanks I'll have to see if I can figure it now.
Do you have more info on this diagram, I'm not finding anything on google, was looking for something that didn't involve the transistor I haven't yet been able to find one in all my stuff. I do have the resistor though, a crap load of them.

If you have a USB connector on your PC you can use the RS 20-047 USB Adapter...
Its mostly going to be on my laptop so yes theres USB, just not looking to spend the money on the cable yet since I just have the 83 from RS, if I can I would like to use my skills and build one I have all the parts except the transistor like said. Plus I'm currently using a serial to USB for my 396.

The transistor is needed for level shifting and signal inversion. It can't be done any simpler than the diagram presented. Radio Shack has the transistor for 79 cents, Model: MPS2222A
Catalog #: 276-2009.
I couldn't find one in all my parts so I guess I'll go pick one up while I'm out and about today. Thanks for the info and I'll see what I come up with.
What I came up with
Heres what I came up with seems to work, but still need to do further testing. I built it out of an old camera serial cable, which to my surprise had the wires I needed, also it had the little capsule which worked perfect for housing the resistor and transistor.
