I can't see the Pegasus controlling the Hercules unless an interface
is installed. The Herc requires a gounded lead to activate each band
relay. It was easy rigging it up with the old Omni C but the Pegasus
has no external connector. After looking over the schematic of the
Pegasus, it wouldn't be difficult at all to tap into the coil of each
band relay and use those voltages to activate small relays external to
the rig and key the Herc. All it would take is some multiconductor
wire and no software changes are needed.
