Darrell, yes, I have, but my solution is not to use such a vendor again. There are vendors for cables out there who know how to do the job correctly; and always do it that way! EdB
-----Original Message----- From: Darrell Locke (msmail) [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, September 06, 2000 5:27 PM To: '[email protected]' Subject: Shielded Cables We recently received some shieled PS-2 cables from a vendor. Upon inspection of the cables I saw that the shield was not soldered positively to the shell, it was just twisted back, I guess in hope that the wire would make contact. When we returned these to the vendor they said "you never asked for that. We'll gladly do it for an extra charge". Huh? Am I in another world here? I assumed that all shielded cables were positively connected to the shell, at least all the ones I have seen. Has anyone else encountered this? How prevalent is this in others experience?
