[Racal] Re: Racal 6790 Connector & Firmware

[Martin Colby]

Many thanks to all who provided help on locating one of the weird 
connectors for the Racal 6790/GM serial control/comm cable.

Through the help of Shaun Merrigan, I located & ordered one from William Perry,

http://www.williamperrycompany.com/

Pretty reasonable too, I thought, at $35 new/$18 used.

In case anyone's interested, model number there is: MS3116E16-26S

In my interest in trying out Al Tipsword's new software for the Racal, I 
discovered the next part of my shortfall: I need an update set of firmware 
(type RAGM01, p/n A09666, rather than the old p/n A08449 that I have now).

(Significant difference for this app is ability to provide AGC level readback.)

Any suggestions on a source?

Many thanks in advance,

Martin Colby
