The PIC-Serial Interface Cable
Windows 95/98/ME/2K/XP

The interface cable connects your transmitter "training" connector to the PC serial port (9 pin male). The training connector is also known as the "buddy box" connector, usually used to connect an instructor transmitter to a student transmitter (where a switch is used to transfer control from the instructor's tx to the student's tx). Note: This PIC-Serial interface cable will support Windows 2000 and XP.
