(rv-9a-online) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 04:12:48 PM PST US From: Tom & Carol Strong Subject: RV9-List: Edge connectors? --> RV9-List message posted by: Tom & Carol Strong I purchased a used transponder and radio from Bennett Avionics and they came with the edge connector wires cut with only 1/4" remaining. I'd like to replace the pins in the connector with new ones. Does anyone know where I can get these pins?

One way to do this is to look for a brand on the connector itself, and even a part number. If all else fails, measure the pitch of the connector pins and the spacing of the rows. Many of the old edge connectors have 0.156" pitch. Then, go to digikey.com or mouser.com and search for compatible pins. Oh, and you could call Bennett Avionics, they may stock them-- a real avionics company should.
