HI all,

Which Jr radios have a pc connections so that I can use it with a simulator and not have to turn on the tx. I currently have a 4 channel fm and I have to turn the tx on. I here that can damage the radio. I will be buy a new radio soon and would like to have the pc connection.


thanks for your help, Joe

Any JR radio that has a DSC connection either on the rear or on the side.

Off the top of my head... 642, 652, 662, 6102, 7202, 347, 388, 378, 783, 10S, 10SX, 10SXII, 10X, XP9303, 8103 plus DX6, DX7, X9303

(plus some of the older sets)

Leaving a radio switched on for long periods with the aerial retracted can indeed cause damage to components if done often enough. The JR socket is a does-all connection - trainer cord, or DSC cord (for direct servo connection) or a PC FS cable. In each case you do not switch on, just plug in the connection. The screen comes to life and everything operates normally except that the radio does not transmit.
I think this is the answer you are looking for.
