PC 9 pin to 25 pin connection

    1 ---- 8
    2 ---- 3
    3 ---- 2
    4 ---- 20
    5 ---- 7
    6 ---- 6
    7 ---- 4
    8 ---- 5
    9 ---- 22

    Also, if you want to connect the second serial port on the
    Advantage card but did'nt buy the AST cable. Connector J3
    on the Advantage card is the output for the second serial
    port. It has two rows of 5 pins.  Assuming the pins are
    numbered as:

	      6 7 8 9 10 <---J3 on AST
	      1 2 3 4 5       Advantage card

	then pin
	1 is DCD
	2    RxD
	3    TxD
	4    DTR
	5    signal gnd
	6    DSR
	7    RTS
	8    CTS
	9    RI
	10   ???

	Hope this helps...
