I just purchased a $30 cat cable from Mouser and first of all they sent me the wrong thing. The end has male pins, not female. I did have a male to female adapter and I then plugged that into the rs 232 port on the back of the Yaesu 450d.
However that still did not work. I plugged the cable into the USB port and heard click click click and the radio was stuck on transmit and I had to unplug the cable to get it unstuck. I got multiple com port errors. Same problem as before. Cannot control radio with cat cable. Everyone - I cannot fix this problem by myself. I guess now I need to send the cable back to Mouser and tell them its the wrong thing. Also, I have done everything in my power to try and figure this out. I need help. Either by teamviewer or in person. I am at a dead end. I cannot operate ft8 with a stuck transmitter. My phone number is 713-305-2148. Sorry to keep bringing this up, but it is really getting frustrating. Thanks. Marty, AG5T
