Dave, I would think that using signal detection techniques would solve that issue. We have been experimenting with them lately and yes, there is work to be done, but that is what this is all about. Steve, k4cjx --- In digitalradio@yahoogroups.com, Dave Bernstein [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

Trying to think how to handle that Andy, and I would simply cut around (not through) the monitors cable at the far end, remove one pin at a time and move that wire over to a new connector. You should be able to do that one at a time, looking where the old pin was, and mathcing with the new one.

Hello Andy, I have replaced monitor cables in the past. Just get out a ohm meter and buzz the existing cable out and write down on piece of paper the color for each pin. Do the same thing on the new cable. Swap the cable out. I found color coding different on the ones I have repaired. Wire in
