Hi  i do my cabling for link Radio and Amplifier , may have Idea for Flex 

in  all BCD config  bit 9 ( blue wire)  is never used  ,it may good to turn it into a PTT ;-)
this make only 1 cable  for control the linear 

and wly not use bit 7 and 8 for a CAT , ok this one is not easy to make a UART in Bit-banging  mode whit  FTDI ,but it doable  ;-)

but PTT is really easy to implement

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
