There is no supply voltage on any of the 6-pin mini-din connections. I wished for the same thing on my FT-8900, but that data connector is an industry standard, and the standard does not include supplying Vcc+ to power external equipment. 73, Randy WF5X On Mon, Dec 14, 2009 at 12:50 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: Keith; thanks for the reply...would the T2 gets its power from the 6-pin mini-DIN cable coming from the radio? --- In [email protected], "Keith VE7GDH" <ve7...@...> wrote: > Definitely go with the 6-pin mini DIN cable.
