Default jav-232 cable: where to get?

is there anywhere on this earth I can get a jav-232 cable?
www.javiation.com still says:
'Please Note that the JAV-232 is currently unavailable.'
surely there might be somewhere else I could get one?


What are the connectors? Maybe some other cable will do the same job.
(My Yaesu cable works on my Radio Shack scanner.)

I haven't seen a cable yet that will do the same as the jav-232. If there is another cable I'd be grateful to know about it.

There are *many* RS232/TTL cables available. Look on Don Starr's
cable page
http://www.starrsoft.com/software/Win96/Cables/cables.html to start.

thanks but this page seems to be only for Radio Shack scanners and mine is an AOR scanner with the special Options socket.

RS-232 is RS-232, TTL is TTL. Wiring a plug adapter is the easy part.

with an AOR control lead (CC8200) there is a small circuit board tucked inside the serial port plug housing, it's not a case of
just wiring a plug adaptor although I wish it was. I expect the jav-232 cable (if it ever exists again) would contain even more
circuitry. Soldering sections togther is easy. Getting hold of the sections - that's the hard part.

Same with all other RS-232 to TTL converters.

The cables on Don's site make it easy - they do the level conversion.
All you have to do is the connector conversion. I haven't seen a
schematic of the jav-232, but I'd be veru surprised if it was anything
more than a bidirectional level converter.
