Title: Need old fashoined connector for my Yaesu Landliner Post by: w1vtp on February 17, 2014, 01:18:25 PM Hi guys
I am resurrecting my Yaesu landliner and want to hook up my telephone. The connector I'm looking for is a two pronged affair that I think was common during the 70's Here's some pics of it sitting on top of my 2 meter repeater (that I just fixed). Front and rear shots plus a close up Al Title: Re: Need old fashoined connector for my Yaesu Landliner Post by: WD8BIL on February 17, 2014, 04:29:27 PM Hi Al........ that looks like the same connector used on the Drake's power supply for amplifier keying. Perhaps someone here has an extra one.

Pin to pin = 0.2" Title: Re: Need old fashoined connector for my Yaesu Landliner Post by: Pete, WA2CWA on February 19, 2014, 02:10:25 AM Why don't you just make one. Small block of wood, two stiff wires that fit snugly into the mating connector, couple blobs of solder on each wire to hold them in place in the block of wood. Not beautiful, but functional.

Might come to that Title: Re: Need old fashoined connector for my Yaesu Landliner Post by: KA0HCP on February 19, 2014, 05:07:28 PM How about an HC-25 crystal holder. The pin spacing is 0.192" pin dia. is 0.040"

The pin spacing is 0.192" pin dia. is 0.040" Don't that that xtal type. However, on a whim, I checked the spacing between pins on an octal tube and it's pretty close - Hmmm.

Good excuse to drop by and check out the projects. Title: Re: Need old fashoined connector for my Yaesu Landliner Post by: WU2D on February 20, 2014, 06:55:30 PM Nice Al, you are always welcome.
