Hi All,

I am going to be using an ADI 247 as a temporary link radio and am wondering
if anyone has used one of these in the past.

If you have, can you give me any tips on where the best point to pull COS
from may be? hi or lo... either will suffice.

Thanks!

It will burn up except on low power with a fan on it.
All Amateur radios are NOT designed for 100% duty cycle.
But a Motorola maxtrac or radius. they are almost 80% cycle and if you
turn the power down 20-25% will run cool!!

If you plan on using it for IRLP I will help you with the programming.

Well I did it..

I simply took the time with an old analog VM and I found exactly what I was
looking for..

On the ADI AR-247, I was able to locate both COS Hi and COS Low.

Pins 10 (SQ) & 12 (SM) on CN4 will provide Active Low and Active High
respectively.
It's only about 4 Volts on my meter but that's more than enough to trigger
my IRLP v3 card.

I simply pulled my COS from the leg of VR1 for my active high.
