Dennis and Joe,
?Thanks for the rundown. Even my simplistic view can make sense of the logical progression as explained.
But back to the question though, the /WE on the KVL plug is not associated with the /WE the uC uses to control writes to the onboard EEPROM, right?
So is a means to toggle it's function needed to keep encryption operational with the freq agile, CH? or other enhancement being kicked around here?
I would think the KVL/Crypto module coms are all stand alone, and could care less what the radio does, as long as it does what it is told w/regard to audio paths in/out of the encryption HW.
