Jerry,

The cable for the  ts-2000 computer control is a db-9 straight through.  Not
a null modem type which  has 1 pair of wires reversed.  For some reason
Kenwood put a  male plug  on the rig, the same as is on the serial port on
the pc, so you will need a double female cable or  use  an adapter.


This simple cconnection  will open up the world of computer control.   Not
only the programs from  Kenwood (1 free- 1 not), but also all the modern
logging programs  and other third party control programs  which control the
rig.


One of the rear din's is for amp control, and another is for audio in-out
for  digital  stuff and a few other  connections that  escape me right now.
Forget what the third din is for.

73, have fun, Steve KW3A
