JP I also have an 857, if you are using the CAT to connect to a computer without a serial port, do note some serial to usb adapters will not work or will not work correctly with the cable. Make sure that is not the issue or the cat cable, I have one to try if needed. Robert KD5YVQ

Can anyone suggest a local repair shop or person. Obviously, I’d like to avoid shipping off into the wild blue yonder if possible.
