Digirig DR-891
USB digital modes interface kit for Yaesu FT-891 including transceiver cables.
The cables in this kit are not sold separately because they can not be used
with other Digirig Models. DR-891 is the only Digirig model that supports a
downlink USB connection (red socket). This model of Digirig can be used to
interface other transceivers with the functionality equivalent to Digirig
Lite. Connect any of the standard Digirig audio/PTT cables into the black
socket labeled “audio”.
Do not plug anything into DR-891’s colored socket labeled “USB” other than the
cable with the red molding included in this kit or cable from the accessory
kit.
