Re: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch box?
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. 73 Gary WB6BNE - Original Message - From: Tony To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, November 22, 2009 8:45 PM Subject: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch box?

Re: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch box?
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. James W8ISS = On Monday 23 November 2009 11:06:03 Gary A.

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. Rick N6RK
Re: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch box?
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. Randy K7AGE

Re: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch 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 Don KA5DON

Re: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch box?
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. 73 DE Charles Brabham, N5PVL Prefer to use radio for your amateur radio communications? - Stop by at HamRadioNet.Org ! http://www.hamradionet.org - Original Message - From: Tony To: digitalradio@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, November 22, 2009 9:45 PM Subject: [digitalradio] 13 pin DIN plug switch box?
