Has anyone successfully connected a MCD5000 to a Legacy W9 Consolette Via the FKN8690 Cable?
Which Radio Accessory Connector 2 OR 3 is the appropriate one to use?

Evening W4NMH,
I have done so with a dual RJ45 to DB25 like Motorola would send with the MC3000 and straight through cables. Didn't need the factory cable.
I wired the adapter against J3
Things worked great once programmed and gliches removed
Don't forget to enable digital control of the consolette or the SB9600 commands will never be transacted.
