Well, just had to write this review to make those of you wary. I purchased this adapter so I could use a paddle on my computer for CQ100 and MRX Cwcom. First, when it arrived it looks not at all like the picture in the website, with attached cable and 3.5 mm plug. It came as just a DB9 connector with a 3.5mm socket on the adapter, with a note stating the cable no longer is sent with it and this is the new version. If I wanted a refund, I could send it back. Ok I could live with that. But... the supposed 3.5mm socket was NOT 3.5mm. Unless it was broken, nothing fit it. It must have fallen off some turnip wagon. So, 3 weeks ago I sent it back 1st class for 80 cents (when it cost me 4.00 for shipping to my house-ripoff). Looking for refund, I never saw. 3 emails later I get a response that when he gets my package, I will get a refund. Contact with this guy really sucked. Anyway it is now almost 4 weeks, no refund and no email. Did Post Office lose this? Sent identical package same day and it arrived at its destination, so I do not know. So I am out 25.00 bucks. Guess I will make my own cable up to do what I though would be an easier way. DO NOT BUY>
