Does anyone know where I can find a 13 pin DIN plug switch box? I use the ACC2 
socket on my Kenwood TS2000 to run sound card modes and connect my Kam Plus 
TNC. A switch would come in handy.

Hello Tony,

Your not going to find one of those type of boxes. They just don't exist.
You can build one easily. Go to your local thrift shop and pick up a RS232
switch box use for switching printers used in the past. It contains the 
switch
that you need and the box.also. Buy a pair of 13 pin Din receptacles, plug,
wire and some solder. Can't be much easier than that.

I would go with a db-25 printer switch that way you have access to all pins
even if they are not all used.

If you can become a member of one of your local Freecycle mail groups, you
post that your looking for a couple. I did that a month ago and was given
two units to use. Plans are for them to be used to switch between radios so
as to use one microphone for all and save the other microphones as spares.

A viable approach, however, I have decided for my station to make
everything controllable from the computer.  So instead of mechanical
switches, I always use relays.  I also convert all connectors to
D-subminiature or 3 conductor 3.5 mm stereo jacks.  So what I would do is
buy a cable with a 13 pin DIN plug on it and wire a DB-25 to the other
end.  The box would have a DB-25 and two DE-9's.  The DE-9's would
connect to the ancillary equipment (assuming that no individual piece of
equipment needs more than 9 of the 13 pins).  The control for the
relay bank would be via a 3 conductor 3.5 mm jack.  I can get cheap
3.5 mm patch cables and D-sub cables at the swap meet.

I built a box with lots on RCA jacks and got the 13P DIN breakout cable from
MFJ. Add a couple of switches and be all set. Using the MFJ cable saves from
having to solder pins on the high density 13 P DIN connector.

LDG also sells a breakout box.

Look at the MFJ-1272B/M TNC Microphone Switch.  I have no idea if it is what 
you are looking for, or if it would work, but

You can still get serial port switches that work well for this, they have a 
rotary switch inside, giving you plenty of options.

Here's a place that advertises them, at swap-fests you can get them for next to 
nothing. Use RS-232 plugs to hook everything up, I use one for a 
digital-or-microphone switch. Works great.
