Interestingly, I just found an *almost* exact fit connector on, of all things, a scrap CCTV monitor circuit board. I noticed the spacing on the pins for the deflection yoke connector looked to be about right, so I desoldered it and cut it in half. Sure enough, the two pins that are slightly farther apart on one end fit the VOX connector! It is just a smidge on the wide side, so the fit is snug, but it does slide in and the pins themselves seem to be about the right size. YMMV, not all monitors are the same. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
