I thought that connector was a 4-pin?

I don't have the rig here so will have to check -- I ordered
the connectors from TenTec earlier today and he asked me if
they were 6 or 4.

Perhaps a difference between the analog and digital models?

I saw your note regarding the Triton IV on the reflector. I am also building a power cord for my Triton IV. I bought a Cinch-Jones female, cable type socket at a local parts supplier, thinking that it would fit the six pin plug on the back of the rig. It comes close, but it is slightly too small. I have located another similar six pin socket in the MOUSER catalog. It is made by Molex and looks slightly heavier duty than the Cinch-Jones model. Ten Tec has often used Molex plugs and sockets on their gear. I think that the Molex version will work. I intend to order one today to to see if I can use it in making up a power cord. I have consulted the Triton IV instruction book and they give no information beyond saying it is a six pin plug. I have not consulted Ten Tec about this. They may be able to give more definitiive information or may even sell them. Please let me know if you find out any more information, and I will do the same for you. 73, Hal W0MXY Colorado Springs, CO
