[SFDXA] Cable for K4FK

[Norman Alexander]

Kai,

Should have asked earlier.   A suggestion, I get all my similar cables from 
Marlin P. Jones here in Lake Park.  You might find it a good idea to go online 
check their catalog for cables and order a selection.  USB family of cables, RCA 
types, and a bunch of DB 9, 15 and 25 cables.  Also all kinds of jack adapters, 
mini to 1/4inch, 1/4in to mini (1/8) and made up cables mini to mini stereo and 
such.  Also cat 5 cables are available.   


I have purchased a selection of these various cables in lengths from 3ft, 6ft, 
10/12ft up to 100ft long.  These cables are so cheap (usually less then $3.00).  
I find that even if they  do not have a cable termination combination I need I 
buy a cable with one correct connector and now I only have to assemble a 
connector to one end. Plus I often have the makings of a second cable from the 
part I cut off (plan ahead and buy it long enough for two cables.

The also carry a broad range of DB connectors and all are very inexpensive - 
less $1

 Regards,


Norm

Can anyone donate a USB jumper cable for our club station K4FK?

Specs:  USB 2.0/1.0 (i.e., 4 wires)
Connector at computer end: USB Type "A"
Connector at second end: USB Type "B"
Ferrite RFI suppressor near the Type "B" USB connector.
A clam-shell RFI suppressor would be a suitable alternative. 

Please see the Figure under "Physical appearance" in 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Serial_Bus

Thanks! and 73
Kai, KE4PT
