USB CAT CABLE FOR AOR AR8000 SCANNER Method #1 involves drilling a hole in the radio shell, where a stereo audio jack will be fitted. Select either a 2.5MM or a 3.5MM jack paying attention to its overall dimensions Three locations are potentially suitable Take your time to measure the exact location, so that the jack won't interfere with the radio PCB's and components inside. The jack will remain in between the two PCB's.

Method #2 makes use of an FFC adapter This means that the battery hatch has to be moved away, so that the FFC adapter can be pushed into the FFC jack inside the radio A slot may be engraved in the battery hatch, so it won't be moved away when using the CAT cable Such slotted hatch was marketed by AOR to be used with their interface CU-8232 |
