Weren't the 19-pin D-sub connectors also used on the Atari Falcon for their

DA-15
DB-25
DE-9, and also HDE-15 (PC-VGA)

That I remember for sure... and here's the "I think":
DC-37 (old floppy drive connector)
So would the 19-pin be DF-19 and the 23-pin be DG-23?

Hey folks...I don't know if there are any Atari hackers around here; I
may be alone...but I wanted to let any interested parties know that I've
located a source for the proprietary connectors that Atari used for
their "SIO" bus, which is used to connect nearly all of their
peripherals in a daisy-chain configuration.

Not only that, but they have the rarer-than-hens-teeth DB23 connectors (as
used by NeXT Station sound boxes) and DB19 connectors (later Apple 2
external flopppy drives).
