Folks,
I apologize for the out-of-the-blue posting; I think I last posted
here something like 2 years ago.
Does anyone know what the DC power connector for the Icom IC-R9500
receiver is? It looks ALMOST, but not exactly, like catalog photos
I've found for the Molex SABRE 18A 3 pin female connector, but I'm not
sure. Icom doesn't sell it and doesn't seem to know what it is. I'm
trying to locate a source for a couple of connectors (with or without
a fused cable; I'm not picky at this point) so I can run my receivers
off an external 12V system rather than their internal AC power
supplies, and I've been banging my head up against what I'd think
would be a very simple question for weeks now.
The R9500 comes with such a connector, but it's configured as a 2 pin
jumper (required when using the internal AC supply) rather than as an
external connector, so salvaging the jumper is not really a viable
option.
Any help or pointers to solid information or sources would be greatly
appreciated. If it's in fact the Molex SABRE that's great; I think I
can order those from DigiKey, but as I said, it doesn't look exactly
like the catalog photos I found for that connector.
Thanks!
