Hi Don;
They have replaced the PG4P with the PG4Y which come standard with a nine
pin adapter.

I do have a question about the thf-6a which maybe someone can
answer.
I got the data cable for it a few years back, but the cable has a
25-pin serial connector on one end. Is there a cable for the thf-6
which has a 9-pin serial connector? I know I could get an adapter,
but with my wiring setup (or should I say mess), <smile>, a cable
with a 9-pin connector would really be better if such a thing
exists.
Thanks,
Don W6SMB
