In motion sat.

Does anyone know where I can find a PC Data Cable DB9 for my old KVH TracVision L2. It will find the Sat. for a few minutes and then goes looking for another sat. Ends up saying Wrong Sat. as if I didn"t know that.....

If you can't find one let me know and I'll check the guy where I got mine from. If all else fails I can mail you mine. Best Buy did not have them when I asked, not a big seller. You have to locate an out of the way small computer geek shop that has one collecting dust.

Here is what you need, or you could drive up here, spend a week or two and we'll troubleshoot our systems together!

I found this on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Cables-Go-26886-Serial-Adapter/dp/B000067RVJ I paid more than that for mine!

I'll get Missy to order me one. It would be easier for you to come here. I think you're closer to me than I am to you.........

Hey Tom,

We have some busnut frieds in Kansas doing the same thing, Ron and Sharon Mead. They own a gorgeous Flex that was the winner and centerfold in the September issue of BCM.

Just trying to help out!

I know that our local Radio Shack does not stock much in the way of odd computer cables, I checked. They have lots of cell phones though!

They and others are leaving the purchase on most slow moving items to the internet.

Richard, When you get it give me a call if you are having problems setting up the COM channel for the Hyperterminal.
