Are there multiple Molex Standards? I have some 6 pin male and female 
molex connectors right here and the "square" and "round" pins are in 
different locations than on the Icom and Kenwood power cables, i.e. they 
are all 6 pin with the right spacing but they won't mate with my Kenwood 
or Icom gear due to different pin keying.
