Hi Paul and list,

When you say "pins 3 and 4 are 3.3v ttl level, and contain the same data 
as J2 pin 2" does that mean that pins 7 and 8 on on the 15 pin header 
are the RX/TX pair TTL side of the SIPEX TTL-to-RS232 chip?

One of the things I was hoping for was to find TTL access to the serial 
port so I don't have to go Arduino TTL to RS232 off-board and then go 
back from RS232 with the Sipex chip on the board.

Have taken a look-see on pins 3 and 4 to see if there is any serial data 
coming in / going out of there?

thanks much,
