hi all,
I just bought an xts2500 and found out i can't use my jedi rib-less programming with it.
Could i just re-solder the wires or am i better off just buying the right cable?
thanks,
Alex

I have a spare OEM RS232 cable NIB. PM me if interested.
Even if you don't get one from me I still recommend an OEM cable.

It wouldn't work anyway...the serial ribless works in a different way than the standard 'RIB/Jedi cable' combo...so it's not just a matter of switching some pins around in the cable.
