[arm-allstar] Baofeng 888 Allstar

[Doug Crompton]

Andy,

In the photos I used Belden 5 wire shielded cable because I had some on hand but it needs only 4 wires and a ground (COS, PTT, RX-AUD, TX-AUD, GND) so an old USB cable could be used. They are generally 4 wires shielded. The shield being the ground. You might have some other similar cables laying around you could repurpose.  It should definitely be shielded and if you are using the shield for the ground make sure it is connected at both ends.

Hi Doug,
What are you using for the cable that you are soldering to the 888? I have a male DB25 connector, but I'm unsure as to what kind of cable to buy to solder between the DB25 and the 888. It only needs 6 wires right?
Thanks & 73,AndyKK4ZKP

I added a link on the hamvoip.org page on my mod of a Baofeng 888. Here is the direct link -

This is a take-off of W0FCM's page also linked on hamvoip.org but just done slightly differently.

It is working well.
