[TenTec] TT 961 Misc

[Barry N1EU]

I'm going to take a wild guess.  First came the 4-conductor ribbon cable as
a carry-over from the earlier power supplies.  Next came the thick round
jacketed DC power cable.  But the last DC cable used on the late 962's was
a two-conductor unjacketed cable.  Again, I'm guessing and someone please
correct me if I'm wrong.

I have strong opinions on packing - DOUBLE box the power supply.  If that's
not possible, fold some thick cardboard around the rear heatsink fins and
use a TON of big bubble wrap.
