I have been pestering the people at my local electronics store and I think that I have found a lead on the connectors that we all need. Looking through a 3M catalog, I found some .079 inch [2mm] spacing, 28 gauge connectors. They are basically everything that we need. They can be found in any number of pins. Unfortunately the dealer that I was at is not a "master" distributer so cannot get these little beauties. The person that was helping me seemed to be a bit reluctant to give me the name of the master distributer, as the name that he gave me for the Denver area doesn't exist. So..... I am asking if anyone out there has a 3M distributer nearby. If so then the cables are available, and I suspect that there is someone out there willing to distribute them given a little bit of money. I would love to do it but I don't have the time. Anyone want to check this out? I am still going to continue to try to find them here but if we could come up with them somewhere else that would be great too. I have other things that I am looking into also but this one seems to be the most promising. ian -- -=Runaway Daemon=-
