Hi Dan,
I bought several very cheap USB to serial adaptors from an Amazon seller for
90 pence each. I guess that's about $1.30 or so. They use the Prolific
chip set, and I've downloaded the drivers for Windows 64 bit. Several of my
friends have had problems with the Prolific drivers and Windows, and have
gone for the apparently more reliable FTDI chip set adaptors.
The connector at the rear of my TS-2000 has a male connector, where you can
feel the pins, and my USB to serial adaptor has the same. I needed to buy a
9 pin female to female gender changer to make the connection. Fortunately
there is nothing special about the serial connection to Kenwood rigs, and
there Is no need for cross over serial cables.
Best wishes, Kelvin Marsh - M0AID

Hi Gary and All,
I have the TS-2000 MCP program, and this allows you to backup all of =
your
TS-2000 settings to a PC. It is also completely accessible, and =
allows you
to change every setting, including memories, and write them back to =
the rig.
I believe this is a free program available on the Kenwood downloads =
page,
and on that basis I'm happy to share if it is needed.
For instance, I used it to set up all the repeaters in my area, =
including
CTCSS and tones etc, write them to the radio, and now I also have a =
backup
in case I ever need to perform a reset.
