Updates on Bluetooth Headsets Tried So Far
Blueparrot B250xt - Paired up and worked very good. Had to go to the "Bluetooth" menu and set "VOX" option to "VOX Low".
Ford Sync in F150 - Updated with the newest Sync software and could not connect in "PHONE" or "BLUETOOTH AUDIO" mode.
Plantronics 220 - Paired up, but had no incoming or outgoing audio. The button on the side of the headset would activate the radios PTT.
BlackBerry HS655 - Paired up and worked very good. Had to go to the "Bluetooth" menu and set "PTT" to "Vox Low".
Motorola H375 - Paired up and worked very good. Had to go to the "Bluetooth" menu and set "PTT" to "Vox Low".
Motorola H390 - Paired up and worked very good. Had to go to the "Bluetooth" menu and set "PTT" to "Vox Low".
If you go to the "Bluetooth" menu and set "Audio" to "Manual" the audio comes out both the headset and speaker of the radio. If you run "PTT" - "Vox Low", or "Vox High", make sure your volume on the radio speaker isn't so high that it triggers the headset mic.
Still waiting for my GPS & CT-142 data cable on backorder. RT System has shipped my ADMS-350 for the Yaesu FTM-350 radio.

GPS Installed & CT-142 Com Port Connection
Installed the GPS and it works great. Locked on to position very fast.
Playing with CT-142 & UI-View to see if the COM Port setup will communicate with the radio. Works in Hyper-Terminal, can see the GPS data if you set the Com Port to GPS. If you set it to Packet, I see the stations being beaconed. I think UI-View will only RX, but that will let me see stations on a map. Have to figure out what UI-View wants the Com Port setup to RX from the radio. KISS mode doesn't work.

Haven't had any luck with Ui-View and the 350.
I had another post and many said to give up. All I would like to do is have Ui-View receive the packets and plot them on the map.
Got the software from RT Systems and after finding a glitch, contacting them, it was fixed in less than a week. Works very nice.
