[1000mp] MkV Amp interfacing questions

[Mike Gilmer, N2MG]

Kenwood also uses a non-standard (non-RadioShack) 8-pin DIN on the rear
panels.  This is an OLD problem.  I bought several from The RF Connection
http://www.therfc.com/dinconn.htm to keep in stock (along with 8pin mic
connectors and a few others) They call the non-std a DP8/262.  If you need
to find them in the future, I suggest you use eHam's vast Links database - I
searched for "DIN connector"  to find them originally.

> The Band Data jack does not seem to be the typical 8 pin DIN connector.
Does anybody know the type
> designation and where I can get the proper mating plug?
