Happy Sunday, everyone. Recently, I was gifted a pair of Radtel RT-860 hand-helds…and despite the fact that they are just awful, horrible, backwards radios, I would like to at least TRY to use it for something useful…like APRS. That way, i don’t have to beat up my far nicer Yaesu VX7. Is there a cable for this horrible little radio?? John KB2HSH ---

According to [Review Radtel RT-860 - Miklor](https://www.miklor.com/COM/Review_RT860.php) the 860 has a standard K1 connector, perhaps the Baofeng/K1 cable would work? I don’t have one, can’t try it myself. ---
