John,
I am pretty sure that ICOM sells a USB version of the OPC-1529. ?It isn't cheap. I built my cable and just use a USB to serial adapter. ?The cable is easy to build and there are schematics all over the web. ?I would say connect to my D-RATS and download the schematics and the file describing the setup for the ID-880. ?However because of the weather I have everything shut down. ?
Sorry I couldn't be more help.?
Tnx
David, AC7DS

?
Now that I have a working D RATS program using the internet, I am wanting to set up a RF connection. Does anyone know of a USB version of the OPC-1529 data cable? If not, what serial to usb converter would you recommend? ?I am running Windows 8.1. Looking for recommendations from those that know the converter will work.
Thanks in advance,
John
