Molex probably has a similar line but after not finding a product that exactly matched what I had in my Corsair II, I decided to take another run at the archives with a couple of different search terms. I finally found this posting from 2004:

I found the AMP ones at Mouser and they match exactly what I have in my radio. Thanks Bob for the reply and all the other emails suggesting different manufacturers. I had a couple guessing AMP but couldn't figure out the model number. I decided to repost the message from 2004 above in case anyone else goes looking for them in the archives.

Thanks !!!

These are typically MOLEX brand connectors of the IDC type.  I suggest you download the MOLEX catalog  and you can order as you need by model number from either Digi-Key or Mouser.   Both have a good selection in stock at reasonable prices.

I apologize if this has been asked before as it certainly seems like it should have been. I've been all through the archives, the wiki, and even Google but cannot find an answer.

Where can I get the different connectors that Ten Tec used in a lot of their older equipment, namely the Corsair II ?  These are the little clear connectors that the factory put numbers on to be plugged into their corresponding numbered sockets on the boards.

Thanks !!!
