Hey all, Does anyone know the serial cable Pinout for an early Birdog satellite signal finder? Pretty sure its db-9female to rj-11 4-conductor and if I had to guess.... it might be wired like this:

db-9F ---------- rj-11

Pin2---------------Pin1
Pin3---------------Pin2
pin5---------------Pin3

can anyone either confirm or deny this wiring scheme? I'm planning on ordering a replacement cable but i'd like to build one real quick so I can update this badboy and put it to use asap.....TIA

I'll bet the manual is online and you can find the information there.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.

I'm sure you've probably already found this info. It's not in the manual. For other users who need it, this pinout is:

Serial RJ45
2-----------5
3-----------4
5-----------3
