Yaesu seems to do each transceiver model a bit differently, so a cable that will work with one Yaesu, may not work with another, even if the connector physically fits.

It can work, but there is not a universal cable for all. 73, Don W3FPR On 8/9/2011 9:10 PM, iain macdonnell - N6ML wrote: > You *can* operate with your transceiver without the cable.
