I like mine, David -- it was comparatively good value for money. The UI
isn't great (I can never remember which combination of buttons and
twists does what, but that's a general gripe with most 57mm glider
instruments these days).

I can't use the .NET-based program Dittel supply to up/down load the
preset frequency list because it won't run on Linux, so I'm writing my own
program. I have a suitable wiring harness built and a specification of
the protocol used for these uploads and downloads, but I don't know know
the serial port settings on the radio.

Can anybody tell me what baud rate, parity and stop bits setting the the
KRT2 uses (pins 2,13 plus ground - same as it uses to talk to a remote
head).
