Great information, Ron! Thanks for that pearl. I was eyeing some extension cables at Radio Shack but thought they'd be shy of a wire or two. I'll revisit that approach.

I also got stuck on the fact that the mouse cable, usually you had spare mice laying around, didin't have all 6 wires connected to the molded connector.  I've found that mice extension cables had all wires connected and 1 cable that are normally used for KVM switches can make 2 cables.  You can get the connectors from Mouser but man are those solder connections small and hard to see :-)

I thought I could sacrifice an old mouse cable, but the darned thing lacks wires on the proper pins. Cable is on order. In the mean time, I downloaded and installed Steve Henke's PTT Dispatcher (iaxrpt)
