Most of these recommendations are for 'standard level converting'
interfaces. My guess is what is needed is custom built hardware that
includes code to read the status from the radios display circuit. I don't
have the technical know-how to do this. I was hoping someone had solved
this problem. If they did, they could make a small fortune marketing it.

Take a look at RadCom software. If it can be done they have done it.
