Thanks for the info, I am in no way an electronics engineer, just an old retired railroader, building electronic things and soldering is not my cup of tea, if I can't get it already made, then it most liklely won't happen, one the other hand if one needed a railroad track built, I'm your man. ----- Original Message ----- From: Keith VE7GDH To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, June 27, 2009 9:41 PM Subject: Re: [tracker2] Tracker2 ad-on board and Alinco DR-135

The mic can be used when the radio isn't in data mode. Some of the "remote" functions on the mic no longer work... but there's a cable inside the radio that can be disconnected that restores some of the functions. Look for postings from me and others on the list from a couple of years ago. Search for something like "remote mic functions". 73 es cul - Keith VE7GDH -- "I may be lost, but I know exactly where I am!"
