Bob,
There are a few things I could do but, wow, what a headache.
The link trainer has two female plug sockets mounted within a plate on t
he side of the machine.
To start changing connectors I would have to make a new mounting plate a
nd desolder 40 22 ga. wires
then solder them back into the new connectors. I would have to do the sa
me to the 20 wires that are part
of the flight recorder.
Yes, these are pretty old connectors. They were used on the trainer wh
en they were built in 72.
Larry

Mmmm . . . making a new plate to mount larger
connectors is pretty easy if you have the
punches for d-sub holes. I do have those.
I could, in fact, make you any new flat-plate(s)
properly punched, in a few minutes.
I wouldn't use solder connectors for so many
wires. I've probably got what you need in
crimped housings and pins to do the job.
Got a tool I could loan you too.

Larry,
Would the pins in the existing connectors fit in a new 26 pin or 25 pin
body. If they would that would eliminate the soldering or crimping.
Just move the pins with the wires attached to the new body. Just a
thought and probably not a very good one at that.
