[Yaesu] FT one Power plug confirmation

[Dr. Gerald N. Johnson]

Downloaded the Op manual. The connector it shows is the 8 pin Cinch 
Jones type. Apparently getting obsolete. I guess I should quit using 
them for rotor connectors after my stock runs out. I think I've been 
using 10 pin mostly for my main rotor.

I've checked my bins, no 8 pin at all, P or S. That UK vendor might be a 
good source. Or there might be a southern Pacific vendor with that 
standard connector in stock. The lock isn't all that critical to it 
working, they hold on pretty good without it. And the cable clamp may be 
small for a pair of 12 gauge dc conductors. So it may be in the way, but 
its easily removed from the shell.
