When the KRC2 is set to receive band data in an analog mode, the jumpers associated with the
selected input should be removed from the J2 connection. The analog input should then be fed into
the KRC2 using the PC connector. Use J1 pin 1 for the ground return connection. These settings
and connections are listed in Table 5.

Important! Do NOT use the jumper connections to bridge external RS-232

serial port signals. This may cause serious damage to your radio when moving the
KRC2 from one radio to another. The preferred method is to provide the bridging
in the cable used with the radio needing it. This specifically applies to Kenwood
transceivers.

Rig-Specific Setup

The following settings are suggested for each radio. Note that these are suggested that have been
successful for users. Other setups are possible and may be preferred. Note that W4 and W5 should
be set as required for the desired bandmap configuration.
