You can still get the pin inserts and socket inserts, of course.

You don't need other hardware. I'd
send you the pinouts but I don't
remember them offhand.
Great. The occasion is that the gentleman with the PDP8 knows it counts
out of the console port, but doesn't have hardward to do so. I'm going to
give him a little gift. :)
Anyone know where I can get (2) of those 20MA male connectors?

One thing to watch for - pin diameter. I made my own connector for a
VT220 out of a pair of drive power connectors, and it works fine, but
I think the VT220 end got stretched - now that I have a real set of
TTY cables, they don't fit in my terminal. I tried to sort of compress
them back into place, but I think I'll have to remove the board and
remove the connector from the board before I can get clear access to the
pins. OTOH, I could try to make a pin squeezer out of tubing...

Got part numbers? I'm also looking for part numbers for Berg connector
bits - somewhere I have the tool that makes the same cables as DEC did
with the black Berg shells. What I lack is the female crimp-on "pins".
