Just a quick comment here. Rest assured that I do *NOT* want to start a major discussion about this and the following comment is NOT intended to be a flame . But . . . Have you tried to find any 6-pin 2x3 (.1" spacing) female ribbon cable connectors? The folks on the JP1 remote control mailing lists would VERY much like to know where they can purchase such an item. I've searched and been unsuccessful as well. I made some of the ones I needed by cutting down IDC ribbon-style connectors, soldering wires to the pins, then covering with epoxy. I've also taken a pair of 1x3 connectors and glued them back-to-back. dwayne -- Dwayne Reid Trinity Electronics Systems Ltd Edmonton, AB, CANADA (780) 489-3199 voice (780) 487-6397 fax Celebrating 22 years of Engineering Innovation (1984 - 2006) .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .-. .- `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' `-' Do NOT send unsolicited commercial email to this email address.
