I have seen folks discuss that they have doubled up the power pins to the DR7 (the connector has 4 positions, but only 2 pins are used). As I am putting together an order for maintenance?parts while working on a project radio, I'd like to get some of those female contacts, and perhaps a spare connector housing. Does anyone know the manufacturer and p/n of those? I have looked in the Service Manual, but haven't been able to find where they are listed.
Also, is a specific crimper?required to install those contacts on wires, or can tabs be bent over with a needle?nose and then solder applied?
I have been able to order the Molex connectors from Mouser for the plug-ins between the circuit boards; this request is just for the brown connectors that?plug in on the top of the DR7 board (including for front panel switches and power transistors).
