[Kenwood] T599/R599 Transceive Interconnection Cable

Wed, 13 Aug 2003 13:47:03 -0500 (CDT)

I don't have a T599/R599 either, but if it's anything like the later TS-820 series 
stuff the interconnects use unique multipin connectors that are not cheap.  I looked a 
long time before finding a set of connectors for my TS-820 to R-820 connection and 
finally found a pair on eBay for around $30.00.  I could have ordered them through a 
distributor of the connectors in the states (Japanese connector company) but it would 
have probably cost me a great deal more.  These often handle RF and logic signals.

So I doubt they are as simple as the Drake or Collins RCA-RCA type cables.
