- 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. Yo

- Bill, The Yaesus and Kenwoods that have 8 pin DIN plugs are indeed a special size. The problem, I believe it the positioning of the pins across the side with the index notch. The Radio Shack connecto

- This odd DIN footprint seems to be a JA-radio thing. The Kenwood 930/940 series has this same, "unique" arrangement for its XVERTER jack. In my HF-centric world, this jack is where one can tap into t

- Brett, I'm pretty sure the connectors are PC-mounted, so changing them would be a bear. Not to mention, I doubt that the PCB footprint is the same. OTOH, who's to say which connector is "standard"? (
