| Subject: | 400W/420W/430W Power cable |
I want to build a power cable so I can practice using my Garmin GNC 420W at
home. -I called Garmin and was told that I can order their $125 connecto
r kit to build my cable.
The GPS side uses a 78-pin connector that looks like a D-subminiature 78-pi
n connector. -Mouser has them for around $10. -But Garmin tech told me
that their connectors are not "computer connector" but "aviation connector"
; at $125, it sure feel like aviation grade and
price.
Would this work: http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?qs=EP%2f

Thanks in advance.

Bad link for me, but if it's anything like the Apollo, nee, Garmin
GNS-480 they're all standard or high-density D-connectors. You're
pulling the unit out of the tube and flying it at home by directly
plugging in the connectors to the rear of the unit, right? Just use
a good connector and don't damage any pins.
