Thanks Elwood, but I already have two hubs, one two port that is part of my keyboard, and another four port. They are all full with the following : mouse, Jornada cradle, web cam, card reader, digital camera, scanner. As you can tell I have a lot of stuff in my computer room already, I would rather not have to get another transmitter that will just sit there taking up space so that I can use my 9C. Assuming that they will have a cable for the 9C.

My point was that I already have the parallel interface that works great with other Futaba radios. But since I just purchased a 9C for close to $900cdn, I thought that I might be able to get a $10 cable that will work with the interface that I already bought from Great Planes. I shouldn't have to purchase another transitter just to hook up my own radio. I don't imagine that this interlink is going to be under $100 cdn.

Was the new plug design on the 9C really because it locks in so people can't knock it out, or is it another money grab. They are forcing everyone to buy all new accessories to go with this new radio.

I'm in the computer business and appriciate that things have to move forward. The same thing happened when USB came out, But there is usually some way to allow backwards compatibility. You will still get the USB to PS2 connection when you buy a new mouse. You have the option to get a USB board, but you don't have to.

I would just like the option. You force anyone down a path with no options, and you will get resistance.
