-===== Yaesu 6 pin mini DIN radios =====
-A common standard for Yaesu radios is the 6 pin mini DIN plug.
-The easiest way to get a wired 6 pin mini DIN plug is to buy a plug-to-plug cable, commonly available on eBay, for around £5-6, and cut it in half. Then you have two!
-All you need to do then is work out (with a multimeter) which pin corresponds to each wire, and tack them to the pins on a 9 pin D shell plug as follows:
-^  Yaesu pin  ^ Connection                ^  DB9 TNC pin    ^
-|  1          | Transmit audio            |  1              |
-|  2          | Ground                    |  6              |
-|  3          | PTT                       |  PTT            |
-|  4          | Receive audio (9600 baud) |  5 (option)     |
-|  5          | Receive audio (1200 baud) |  5 (option)     |
-|  6          | Squelch                   |  Not connected  |
-Pick pin 4 if you'll be using 9600 baud, or pin 5 if you're using 1200 baud. You might be able to use pin 4 for 1200 baud as well.
-This is verified to work with FT-450D and FT-1500m, and likely very many other Yaesu radios too. This also appears to be the same for the Icom IC-7000.
-===== Yaesu 10 pin mini DIN =====
-This is for the FTM-6000 and probably others.
-Soldering a 10 pin mini DIN won't be any fun - instead buy a Yaesu CT-167 breakout cable.

-^ Yaesu pin ^ Colour           ^ Purpose                 ^
-|  1        | Brown            | Transmit audio          |
