Hi there Guys, I would like to share my experience connecting a Cat 300DXL to my MSF5000.
These are the signal you need:
Cat 300DXL MSF5000 controller
COR J3-6 test point 7
PTT J3-10 test point 9
RX audio J3-13 test point 3
Tx audio J3-11 test point 8
For PL I used an external decoder TS-64 and I "AND" it with the cor signal.
It took us (N4LGG Luis and K4LFK Len) about an hour to find and connect the cat and like Bernie says these are my two bits sence.
