Yaesu 8-Pin DIN

[VK2PR]

I'm looking for somewhere to buy an 8-pin DIN for the BAND DATA socket on my Yaesu FT-2000.

I bought this one from Jaycar and it doesn't fit.

So I bought this one from an eBay seller, supposedly for Yaesu, but it doesn't fit.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/261093659211 ... 1497.l2649

Both plugs have slightly different pin positions, so how many different pin configurations are there available in 8-pin DIN's?

Anyone know where to buy this? All the other DIN's were supplied with the radio, except for this one, and now I don't know where else to look.

Thanks for reading.

Interesting that the standard plug from jaycar doesnt fit as they fit all the other ft 817,857,897 yeasu radio's, I would give andrews comms a ring and see what they say.
good luck 73 .

Thanks for the replies. It's not the mini DIN, it's the full size DIN.

Already tried Andrews. They don't sell them, they only sell the mini DIN.

Yes Peter thay are the normal size DIN but very hard to find in VK
E-BAY or email some of the ham radio outlets in the US may be the best way to go
good luck with it.
