The SCS PTC-IIPro and PTC-IIex come with cables; one end is unterminated, and the other end is terminated with the appropriate DIN connector for plugging into the modem. If you're good soldering small wires to small 8-pin & 13-pin DIN plugs and have the appropriate terminating connectors on hand (many radios come with a DIN connector for their accessory connection, then you can save money by constructing your own interconnecting and control cables. |

3020 | The cadillac of
radio modems, German engineering and design give the SCS PTC-IIPRO Pactor-II and Pactor-III** performance unsurpassed by any other radio modem
in the market. When connected to computer controllable radios,
station/frequency selection and offset is accomplished with a single
keystroke, making Weather FAX and e-mail frequency selection a breeze.
Two cables are required for connection to Icom marine transceivers; the 9090 interconnecting cable, and either the 8081 control cable for connection to the Icom M700/710 series of marine radios, or the 8083 control cable for connection to the new Icom M802. ** Pactor-III requires firmware license upgrade. |

PTC-IIex |
1040 | Ideal for the
budget-conscious cruiser, the lower cost SCS PTC-IIex supercedes the SCS PTC-IIe.
Offering the same
unmatched Pactor-II & Pactor-III** performance, cost reduction is achieved
primarily by excluding the radio control capabilities offered in the SCS PTC-IIPro,
and removing the ten character dot matrix display & associated circuitry from
the design. One connection cable, the 9090 interconnection cable, is required. ** Pactor-III requires firmware license upgrade. |

Pactor-III Up to 5x faster than Pactor-II (4x real-wold measured speed increase under typical propagation & noise conditions). |
9500 | Save your ships batteries and free up your time. Increase the throughput of your SCS PTC-IIPro, SCS PTC-II, SCS PTC-IIe, SCS PTC-IIex four times over the speed of Pactor-II. Under typical band conditions when downloading the 20K WL2K Mobile Users file I regularly see an actual throughput of 13.3K per minute, almost 4X the 3.8K per minute Pactor-II throughput speed. Less on-the-air transmit time saves battery power and gives you time for other cruising activities | $169* Contact Us See Contact Info at top of page | |
