I'm looking for a DEC BC09J cable to hook up a VS3100 to a CD drive... can
anyone point me to a likely source in the UK? Failing that, any hints about
making one up? I'm not sure about one of the parts that I would need - from
what I've heard the 68-pin connector is a "non-standard" DEC part? Sounds
like the other end is just a 50-pin centronics-style job so I guess getting
one of those won't be a problem.
TIA

Alan,
I'm in Denver this week and don't have my extended bookmarks
available, but if you Google "vaxstation 3100 pinout" you'll get a hit
for a 3100 page either on "Kee's computer home" or vaxarchive.
Way down on the page is a link to the pinout table you need.
Yes, it's non-standard 68-pin. IIRC, one of the list-members kindly
offered me a BC09J cable a while back. I already have one, so maybe
he's still got a spare.

I have many more that I will ever need. The small parcel rate from USPS is not
too bad, so if you want to pay shipping...
