The pin spacing and size is very close, but a tiny bit different than 
all the other DIN plugs in the world.
I spent about 30 hours looking for a replacement, and the only 
source I found is Yaesu.
You can tweak the pins with needle nose pliers and force a regular 
DIN in, but it doesn't fit quite right! 
I've heard rumors some people push really really hard and manage 
to get a DIN plug in, but I was always afraid to try it!
Call Yaesu, save yourself grief.
