Frank,

Can you send me a picture of the connector?

Are you familiar with APEX (Surplus) Electronics in Sun Valley. The sometimes have unusual connectors. The problem is, you may have to look through the place for it. The good news is that they can tell you where to start looking.

I recently bought an HP10811A oscillator on eBay, only belatedly realizing that it's designed to interface to a 15-contact connector that the manual identifies as a CINCH 250-15-30-210 or equivalent.

A search turns up a vendor in Massachusetts called BMI Surplus Inc., that appears to have these in stock in new condition at a minimal price. The only hitch is that BMI's website says they're closed down due to COVID-19 and will not process any orders until their state government authorizes businesses to return. (And at this point, it's anyone's guess when that will be.)

To get going with the oscillator, it occurs to me that I could rig up a few small alligator clips and use them on the required contacts for the time being. Any other thoughts or suggestions on how to work this? By any chance are there other known sources for the right size of connector that might be operating right now?

Thanks much,
