[App_rpt-users] USB FOB options

[Doug Crompton]

The parallel port is an option but personally I would just order a FOB you can modify. There are plenty out there and they are cheap. Then when you upgrade to a computer that does not have a parallel port (or a RPi !) you will be ready to go. Parallel ports are soooo IRLP!

You can still use the c-media usb fob, but us a parallel port for cos/cor and ptt.



Here is a cheap parallel port option. http://bit.ly/P2VPCS



This website will give some insight on the board. http://themidnightengineer.com/category/ham-amateur-radio/app_rpt/connecting-radios/

snarl.. just bought two CM-119 USB FOBs locally and they're potted...  tempted to fling them in the bin.. growl... Paint stripper, heat, and solvent won't get this snot off.. cue FBH but hey I have self control!!!!



Ok what are my options?  This old POS 1990's computer has a parallel port.  Maybe easier to just get the proper USB FOB from elsewhere than hax0r up some parallel port lovin, but not keen on the absurd freight from the US.



Suggestions? sigh.
