I have an older auto tracking satelite that used a nine pin cable to connect the low speed data to the control box. The new Direct tuner uses a rj 22 cable. Does anyone know the correct wireing order th make an adapter to connect rj22 to db9?

Not enough information. Contact the dish manufacturer.

It is a TRACKSTAR SV 200 which they don't make or service any more. They want to sell me a new system .I found an adapter that goes from the rj22 to db9 but they want $45 which seems high for a 4 wire plug.I was hoping someone would know the correct wireing order.

Can you share your information or links? I have the same need in connecting a Sony SAT-A50 receiver to a Tracvision LF.
