[Collins] KWM-2 / PM2 cables

I was asked to see if I could make cables with
right-angle plugs to use with the KWM-2 / KWM-2A when
the PM-2 power supply is connected. A search of my
connector supplier shows that right-angle plugs are
available. However, these plugs do NOT have the metal
shields that the connectors I presently use have.
But, if I remember correctly the original cables
supplied by Collins Radio had injection molded plugs
so the connectors that have plastic shells that I can
obtain should work fine.
These right-angle plugs are just over 1/2 inch high
from the metal ring which connects the shield of the
cable. This should work fine with the PM-2 and KWM-2
series.
The cables would have the right-angle plug on one end
and a "normal" shielded RCA plug on the other end (to
"fit" the "other" equipment properly). I can make the
cables using the right-angle connectors for an
additional $5 per cable set. The price increase
covers the cost of the connectors plus the additional
time it is going to require to install these "new"
connectors.
Remember that I am going to have to increase prices
for each "set" of cables $5 on 1 July 2007 because of
a 31% increase in price of the connectors that I use.
That will mean for orders received after 1 July for
cables using the right-angle connectors will be $10
more than what they are right now.
You can find the list of prices on these cable kits at
