[Elecraft] Cables, again

Check with MCM Electronics.  They have all sorts of pre-made cables from 
simple phono plugs to much more complicated.  Many times I can buy the 
pre-made cable with molded on connectors cheaper than I can buy the 
connectors.  I've used their HDMI, VGA, XLR etc. cables, as well as various 
adapters and never had a bad one.
