Yaesu FT-857 Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
This was my first purchase from Neil. I wanted a CAT interface cable for the FT-857D. The dealer I bought the rig from wanted $60.00 and it was not in stock, so I would pay $60.00 plus S/H if back ordered (con job). I looked at reviews here and decided to use Neil via eBay. As I needed the cable ASAP I asked Neil is he would ship the cable right away and trust me to send the cheque drawn on a UK bank right away. I received the the cable in an incredible 4 days time from the UK here in California. The shipping was so cheap I could not believe it, I have been charged 4 times the amount in the USA and it took 5 days to get here. This makes buying from Neil a really cheap option. The interface is well made and worked perfectly, plus you get a CD with lots of great stuff on it. Would I buy from Neil at ZLP electronics again? you bet I would, I will never be ripped off again by inferior OM products.

Great interface, does what it says on the tin! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Having used a couple of homebrew CI-V controllers, I was looking for something a bit more 'professional' that didn't radiate birdies or too much heat. I have found such a device in the G4ZLP interface. It works with my IC756 at all speeds including 19k2 and has none of the problems associated with my Maxx232 interface or the 2 transistor one I using before that. It's small (is fitted inside a 9 pin serial port plug) and doesn't require an external supply. Why spend £80 or so on an Icom CI-V unit when this one does the job admirably, for a fraction of the price! I will be recommending these interfaces to my friends, that is for sure.

Great product , great price Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I found G4ZLP whilst looking for a cheaper alternative for my IC706 CAT lead . It arrived very shortly afterwards with HRD software , which is brilliant , and made working the radio so simple . I was so impressed that when the 706 was replaced I went looking for ZLP for another lead for my new 897 . 1st class service thank you G4ZLP .

Brilliant ! Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
Bought one some time ago (6 months or more), plugged it into my IC-736 and it's been working faultlessly since then.
I have no hesitation in recommending these interfaces to anyone.
(it's also a hell of a lot cheaper than a Icom interface)

Great item - at a great price. Time Owned: N.A.
This was my second purchase from Neil. Why? because I am a satisfied customer with my first purchase in June 2004 for the interface cable for my FT-767GX. So when I needed one in July 2005 for the FT-857D I thought why bother shopping anywhere else - great product - great seller - JUST BUY IT.

FANTASTIC AFTER SALE SERVICE Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
I searched here, there, and everywhere to find a good quality Kenwood CAT lead at a competitive price and luckily i fell onto Neil's (G4ZLP) website. He has lots of interfaces to suit all needs, and is ready to help at a click of the 'EMAIL ME' button. Response times are excellent. My lead was of outstanding quality, much better than i had anticipated, with a good run of quality cable and came with a good compilation of radio software.
I'm happy to know that should my lead ever develope a fault Neil would correct that fault with no questions asked. Truly a top bloke, and you don't get service like that anymore!

Top Marks Time Owned: more than 12 months.
A true plug and play interface based on the good old "kiss" principle - that's "keep it simple, stupid"!!!
I use my interface with several different rigs and software, never a problem.
Don't confuse these with some of the inferior plastic imitations available on the Bay, the ZLP one is properly screened and carefully constructed to last.
Well done 5/5

Works Great !!! Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
bought - plugged in , worked great & don't even know it's there. That's how a Cat interface should be in my opinion. Got to me lightning fast, was cheap & did the job. What more could you ask for????
