Hi, Guys
I'll put this on the Heath list as well, but I always seem to get the
best and fastest answers here on this list.
Purchased a little QRP rig -- the HW-9 but it didn't come with a power
supply or connecting cable. Bought a non-Heath power supply and therein
lies a tale.
The power connector on the back of the HW-9 is a 2-pin male plug that
looks like a house tipped on its side. (Three sides of a rectangle with
the fourth side consisting of two lines meeting at a point, making a
little "roof.")
Radio shack has connectors with the right shape but the wrong size.
I looked at Mouser's catalog but didn't find what I was looking for.
Any ideas? Anyone have a female connector that would match the male
connector on the HW-9, or does anyone have the whole cable?
If not, any ideas where I could get one? (I'd rather not modify the
HW-9 by changing out its connector etc.)
All help sincerely appreciated.
73,
