Yea ... I was there Friday and Saturday ... my company sponsored the wireless Internet hookup. It's raining real heavy right now, so I have to head out soon and make sure all my gear is still working!

Hot as h-e double hockeysticks saturday, got some nice radiation burns from Mr. Sun on my arms legs and face :/

Sorry I missed the Fair and the opportunity to meet you, neighbor.

Take care of that burn. Regards, Mike

Just noticed the RS232 adapter on your web site. Very nice.

If you're interested, here's what I use (below). Also, the 3.5mm jacks I use fit nicely into the 0.1" holes on prototyping boards.

Take care, Mike

how about that ... gotta love the simplicity of it, two transistors and two resistors!

Yeah, 20 cents in parts (grin). The DB9 connector hardware and 3.5mm jack cost more (grin).

Take care. Have fun. Mike
