Hello Larry,

Saying they are not cheap is an understatement.  I called Yaesu parts
and the girl who answered the phone could not find the parts list for
the rotator.  She had me call tech support who had the part numbers
readily available.  I then called back the parts desk and placed the
order.  The molex connectors that mate with the control box were
$1.59.  This is without the pins.  They sell the pins for another
$1.59.  Luckily the guy at tech support told me this and gave me the
numbers for the pins.  I would have assumed that the pins came with
the connector.  Now the metal connector that mates with he rotator itself is
another story.  Yaesu wants $49 for it plus another $10 for the rubber
boot.

Anyway thanks for all the help.
