I'll take the blame for both of these changes.  These changes were 
implemented because I suggested to Brian that moving the Control 
Receiver connections off of the Main plug would allow the repeater 
builder to make all necessary connections from the Micor to the 
controller on just one plug, (IE: moving the Squelch Wiper to the Main 
port.

I'll also take to blame for not helping Brian with the manual as I said 
I would 6 months or a year ago, but a lot has transpired since then and 
I simply haven't had the time.

Yea, that cable can sometimes be easily broken.  Individual stranded 
wires of the right size may be difficult to find.  I use from a roll of 
25 conductor cable that was originally designed for printers, works great.
