It's just a standard serial cable. Make sure something is not
grabbing at your com port. Sometimes it is not at all apparent that
something is reserving the port. Also make sure you have the baud
rate and address set correctly for the radio.

I just bought an ICOM CT-17 to computer control my ICOM 756PROII. The
item didn't come with a serial cable so I hooked up a standard serial
cable and I can't get it to work. Does the CT-17 need a null modem
cable between it and the computer? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
