If you're really bored you can tell me what you know about XTS keyload cables. I have all the parts here but I am doing something wrong with the wiring.
Is there a pin that switches it to keyload mode like a saber?

There's a pin that has to be tied to ground, as it has to be held low for the radio to go into and stay in keyfill mode.
Not sure which pin this is though on the XTS.

Pins 4, 5, and 6 need to be tied together. Helped a buddy of mine build one weekend before last. Had to drill the holes out and epoxy in the pins. It works like a champ. Except we screwed up one of the pins and it won't pop out now. He ended up buying a factory cable. ALOT of work when you can spend 80 bucks and just go to the mailbox and open the box.
Hey Doug, I spent a week in Nashville one night!! Have fun, it's not a bad town.

Go up I24 North to the Grand Rivers exit. It's not that far inside of KY. Get off the exit to the right and look for the signs for Patti's 1880's.
This is the place that has 2" thick pork chops that are steamed from the inside out. They have the most tasty coating...
They also have bread that's baked in a flower pot fresh and delivered to the table with strawberry butter. Wonderful stuff!
That's my favorite place in all of KY. I used to be second level tech support for the telephone switches in Calvert City, Smithland and Bardwell. Whenever I had to visit my sites, I always bought the switchmen dinner at Patti's. They liked it when I came to town.
Also, when you go, make sure to check out the restroom and see what's in the bath tub.
