[TowerTalk] Looking for M/F 8 pin connectors for rotor

[Keith Dutson]

Well, that was a senior moment!  The Bulgin 8 pin connectors WILL NOT handle
the current.  I use them for relay boxes such as Stack Match.  Stick with
trailer connectors.

Yes, trailer connectors are cheap and good for rotor control.  I have some
in use on TIC Ringrotors.

I now use Bulgin 400 Series connectors from Mouser.  The 3 pin model is for
power, and the 8 pin also handles sufficient current for the TIC's.  I like
them for weather resistance.

They're not easy to find, but trailer connectors work great.  Rugged and
water resistant.

Need m/f 8 pin rotor cable connectors. Similiar to Cinch/Jones. For ease in
erecting new tower. Not found any searching. Need someone to point me in the
proper direction.
