[Fourlanders] Looking for an 8 pin mini DIN plug

[Jim Worsham]

Yeah, I got one at Ack on Friday.  Thanks to everyone for looking.  Paul,
W4SKI if he hasn't already sent it the guy (I forgot his name) you know who
has one doesn't need to send it.

It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart
you are.  If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.

Bruce,
I think Jim picked one up from Ack Radio Supply downtown the other day.

Searched for them today but no joy. I can visualize a cluster of them
together but have not found the box or drawer to match the picture in my
mind. I probably will come across them again in either 6 months or 2 years.
While searching I found that I will need one if I ever want to use the
accessory connector on my FT100D.

recall that those are Mini DIN8.
