TTL does NOT go down that line, it is RS232 which is commonly used at
up to 50 feet.  However, you might need to use a shielded cable if you
use a lead longer than about 10 feet.

On the phone cord between the handy board and the charger/interface
card, the signal voltage is TTL levels.  There is also charge voltage,
and ground in the other wires.

RS232 level conversion is done by the MAX232 on this card.
