Mini-DIN

 

socket. Carefully line up the plug of the BlueCAT, 

and insert. Do not force the plug in, as this may damage it, and your 
radio. Do not twist the plug! Please check carefully that you are

If you are unsure as to the location of your CAT port, please consult your 
radio owner’s manual. If you purchased the 4800 baud option, and wish to

use BlueCAT with an LDG YT100 Autotuner, please connect BlueCAT to the
port marked ‘Computer’ on the YT100, and connect the YT100 as normal.
