What is the correct name for the 23 pin D connector?
It's slightly
smaller than a B shell. I've seen it called the DG23 (and DF19 for the 19
pin connector on the Atari ST DMA port), but I don't know how official
they are.
. . .
I've long since given up trying to find the right cable for things like
this. To be honest it's quicker to make one. And then I hopefully keep it
with whatever device it goes with...
But, do you have a source for the Dsomething-23 connector
for making that cable?
In 1986?, when I got my A1000, I cut one end of the shell away
on the male connectors, so that a DB25 could hang over the end.
(a somewhat less than satisfactory solution,
that also reduces the resale value)
On the external drive, the logo was misinstalled upside down
(AT THE FACTORY) - would that raise the value? (like on a postage stamp)
