at some point in time, we are going to need to create replacment pod cables :)
The easiest option is to probably use what Paul Swan came up with (https://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=305211 https://www.oshpark.com/shared_projects/4DNVi8Y0). The use of IDC type headers for the pins isn't ideal as their dimensions are much larger than what Fluke used and over repeated insertions may damage a socket. I noticed a seller on eBay was using similar to these for the underside of his AVG replacement board (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/40-600-10/A136-ND/26427). The pin dimension is pretty close to what Fluke used on their probe heads. It looks like Aries makes a more suitable post version rather than a fork (40-600-20) but availability is scant, maybe there is something with better general availability? _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist@flippers.com https://pairlist7.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist FTP site is: ftp://ttl.arcadetech.org/TTL/Test_Equipment Archive site: http://seven.pairlist.net/pipermail/techtoolslist/
