[App_rpt-users] TM-271 remote base setup

It was suggested that I capture the output of the computer trying to talk to
the TM-271a. So this is what I get:
VF 0146520000,0,0,0,0,0,0,12,00,000,00600000,0,0
VF 0146520000,0,0,0,0,0,0,12,00,000,00600000,0,0
VF 0146520000,0,0,0,0,0,0,12,00,000,00600000,0,0
VF 0146520000,0,0,0,0,0,0,12,00,000,00600000,0,0
VF 0146520000,0,0,0,0,0,0,12,00,000,00600000,0,0
I'm sure that there is something missing. I have tried connecting the PC
running the MCP program and It is sending some sort of unprintable character
to get the radio in to serial programming mode. But it stops there.
Anyone have any suggestions for a protocol analyzer (Free/Cheap)?
Any ideas out there at all?
Thanks & 73,
Scott KB2EAR
