Mark,

I’ve had the cable for a long time, but never really used it. As best I can 
recall, it was a cheap cable. I’m inclined to just find a good replacement. Can 
you recommend a good  source for quality cables?

Thanks.

Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach a person to use the 
Internet and they won't bother you for weeks, months, maybe years.
