I am looking for a source of the 13-pin Atari monitor connector. I know
of one place in California which was selling them a couple of years ago,
but they were not easy to use (the pins did not have solder cups to stick
the wires into - just stubs which you could solder on the side of.)
I understand that this item is commonplace in Europe. If I can't find a
good source of them in Canada or the U.S., I would even be willing to
purchase them from abroad.
Any information would be appreciated.

I hope this isn't the place that sold the unacceptable ones a few years ago. I got one that worked just fine. --Jim Sisul The University of Kansas

Although I've never dealt with them, I've heard this is available from

You could also check out your local ham radio store (if there's any); the 13
pin "ATARI-style" jack can be found on e.g. the KENWOOD TS-440 shortwave trans-
ceiver (the chance to get this connector there is rather low: I've got my
connector for the TS-440 at the local computer store...).
What do we learn from this?
- don't connect your SM124 to a shortwave transceiver
- there has to be a weird standard somewhere
- ...and at least two manufacturers joined this standard.
Have fun, Ralf
