Denis
This is Garry W8GMF and I have a Digirig Lite I ordered sometime ago. I ordered it on line and at sometime I bought your cables. I can’t find an email where I ordered them i Think it nay have been at Dayton. I remember talking to you at Dayton one year , I think 2025., probably bought the cable set there. Anyway going through the form I found your wiring diagram for the audio cable. Just pulled the old Kenwood off the shelf to loan to a 15 year old ham. AI have the Cat control working off an older USB cable and am only working with the audio at this time
My Cable has the S on the TRRS only going to pin 4 while pin 8 ,12 and shield are open.
Should this be fixed and if so is there and easy way to get the cover on the 13 pin Din offf.
Thanks Garry
W8GMF

Garry,
If your DIN13 cable came from TS-450 kit it should have DIN6 cable with it:
> **[Kenwood TS-450 Digirig Cable Set – digirig](https://digirig.net/product/kenwood-din6-cords-for-digirig-mobile/)**
Do you remember getting this as a kit?
If the cable you have doesn’t work, please shoot me a support message through the website and I’ll make a donation of the cable to support a young ham in their journey.

Actually although the 3 pins aren’t grounded I have it installed and it seems to work. I have it going on wsjtx and haven’t tried on Vara but I would expect it to work. The DigiLite I have is the early edition without a case but It is working. Thanks for the offer of a cable but this one seems to work, it is very generous of you.
