K3 and Acom 2000A

[tom-3]

 
I have tried the various configurations shown in the Acom 2000A manual to
connect the CAT input on the Acom to the RS232 Connector on the K3. Using a
"Y" cable and their pinout takes down the RS232 between the radio and
computer. Anyone been successful at this?

Tom,

The "Y" cable shown there is just an example.  For a particular
transceiver one have to refer to the pinouts shown on the next pages
of the ACOM 2000A manual. For K3 a male DB9 connector have to be used
on the place of the female connector shown on the generic "Y" cable
picture. That mirrors the pins as you can see on the K3 cable diagram
(Fig. 7-6).
Should you have more questions, please do not hesitate to write to
