Thanks, I've got the M/F jumper box in my cart. Do you have any 9-9 or 9-25 cables? Tom Wilson wilso...@gmail.com (619)940-6311 K6ABZ On Sun, Jul 12, 2020 at 8:30 PM Mitch Parker wrote: > Tom, > > Good evening! > > I just listed them. > > > https://www.ebay.com/sch/mbpark8ksj/m.html?item=254

Re: [M100] Slim style DB25/DE9 connectors

I'd probably sidestep the whole backshell problem and use an IDC plug. https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/assmann-wsw-components/A-DFF-09LPIII-FP/HHFP09H-ND/5400097 or the same thing with a cable pre-crimped, strain-relief included in both cases. https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/

Re: [M100] Slim style DB25/DE9 connectors

Wow! That looks nasty ;-) I believe that like many RS-232 dongles the Firefly can draw its power from pin 9 of the DE-9 connector, so adding a little wire inside the Model T would get rid of that BCR plug & cable... just sayin'... I'd also make a custom right angle adapter for the RS-232 connec

Re: [M100] M10x replacement internal keyboard?

[M100] M10x replacement internal keyboard?
