[ICOM] Fiber Optic Cables.

[Mike - RR]

Good evening all.

	Does anyone on the list have a broken Fiber Optic Cable for an
IC-900 or IC-901 in your junk box?  Will you let it go?  I have come up with
a fiber optic cable from some of the IT guys at work.  It isn't quite the
same as the ones we use on the 900/901 radios.  But I would be interested in
experimenting to see if I can splice together something that can be made to
work with the 900/901 radios.  I currently have one cable working and in
use.  But I can see that if anything happens to it, it may be difficult to
replace.  And if I can come up with a way to "FIX" broken ones - it may help
others.

	Then again, it might all be for nothing.  But I can try.  If you
have something, even if it is cut, I would like to try.  The connector ends
are what I need, the cable will be spliced to them.  I HOPE.  OTOH, I could
end up super-gluing my fingers together!  <grin>

	Oh - I am an EXTRA class license, so you need not fear I will use
the fiber optic stuff on CB.  <grin>  As if that would stop me?
