Hi Dennis,

I might have one (not sure if its that specific cable, a cable with just one MBNC on it, or what) but will try to look and let you know.

Curious as to why you're not able to repair the one you have?  The end connectors are resolderable, etc., so if its in the connector, that should be possible.

BTW, congratulations on finding the open filter capacitor connections.  That did make the most sense based on what you were reporting.

Regards,
Barry - N4BUQ
