Thanks to everyone who offered their kind assistance. 

My son is an avid user of modular synthesizers and related gear. He had an eight pin DIN cable to spare, and I was able to cut it in half yesterday, ohm out the pins with my VOM, and tin the bare wires to connect to the Fox Delta STS2. 

Getting old sucks, but it beats the alternative.

Les,

Looks like this guy is what you are looking for. It is a bit costly.


Else if you wanted to mail me the DIN-8 socket connector that came with the rotator or the Fox Delta, I can solder it to a spare Cat5e cable I have lying around the house and mail it back. If time is of the essence, you'll want to go with DXengineering. ;) Just call them to make sure that is indeed the cable.

Does anyone make a pre-made interface cable to go between the Yaesu G-5400B and the Fox Delta ST2 Satellite Tracking Interface? 

My failing eyesight have turned the joy of soldering and kit-making into a major league pain. :-( 

I’d also be happy to pay someone that might be willing to make up the cable. Thanks in advance.
