source of USB CM108 FOBs - CHEAP
I bought some CM108 fobs on EBAY for $0.99 each. He has a s***load of them. Not knowing if they’d be real CM108 I waited till I got them to send this note. The USB ID is 08dc:000c the real thing. The last four nodes I built up use D945 motherboards which have parallel ports, which I use for COS/PTT and the USB fob only does audio. No need to modify them for PTT and COS, etc. Anyhow, the EBAY auction is 300503465055 OR click this link Seller’s store is circle607. They’re in Hong Kong. But the postage was under $1.20 for all ten. I stocked up simply because they work so well, cost so little, and not sure when they will stop being available. (hoarding 101) GeorgeC W2DB Allstar 2360
The biggest question is: Are these CM108's the "potted" variety that cannot be modified for PTT use, or are they actual IC's where one can access and solder to the pins? The only way to tell is to crack the case. Scott Scott Zimmerman Amateur Radio Call N3XCC 474 Barnett Road Boswell, PA 15531 On 2/8/2014 10:25 AM, George Csahanin wrote:

Agree with you, but these would still work great for Xipar remote receivers that PTT isn't required! I just ordered 8 of them.

Hello George, Do you have it documented anywhere how you configure the parallel port for COR and PTT? I'd love to see how you have it configured? Thanks! On Saturday, February 8, 2014, George Csahanin <george@dyb.com> wrote:

George When you say the real thing, do you mean that particular fob has all 48 pins exposed and not covered with a blob of glue?

He means a legit hardware address on the fob, and not a knock off chipset. On Saturday, February 8, 2014, Johnny Keeker <cypresstower@yahoo.com> wrote:

I meant it ID's as the right one. All pins covered by black junk, cannot solder to the pins like older ones. But I switched to Parallel port interface a couple of years ago, it has been real good.
