BTW -- the red/black zip cord is NOT ideal for use around RF. Twisted

RF pickup.
What I have been doing for already-constructed Zip-cord leads with APP
connectors already installed is to secure one end of the cable, un-mate
the APP housings at the other end, separate the parallel conductors, and
twist them together again one over the other as "DIY" twisted pair, then
remate the housings. Works fine albeit shortens the cable a bit.
