PAT 9000 - Connector parts Madness!!!

I did a little research today into getting some connectors to build PAT 9000
Cables and Adapters. Here are the prices that I found for the items required.

Program Plug Adapters

I found the correct name and part number at the ITT-Cannon website. I found
a place in California that sells these. They are DL series 156 pin ZIF
connectors.

Connectors are $60
Cover/Shell is 26.40
Handle is $3
100 pins are $50 (each plug uses up approx 100 of these)
Figure about 4 hours time to wire one up from scratch.
(It takes about 2 hours to change them from one game to another.)

The round 57 pin AMP plug on the side of the PAT 9000 that is used to
interface the game boards is -

Amp model # 28-57
Digikey Part Number A1623-ND
Price $ 99.34 each-

Keep in mind, that you still need two 22 position molex connectors and a 44
pin edge connector + wire and some sort of shield ......

I have about 25 of the adapters with my PAT 9000, so I guess I will not be
buying any new connectors anytime soon. I will just have to reconfigure the
one's I have. Time to start trolling the surplus places...
