Re: Elecraft Digest, Vol 145, Issue 16

Scott Townley
The easiest way I've found to reroute signal lines in these sorts of cables is to build a little "adapter" of back-to-back DB shells (9, 15, 25), one male and one female, separated by a  pair of 1" 4-40 hex standoffs.  You then wire between the shells whatever pinout changes you need.  Relatively straightforward and doesn't wreck the original cable.  That's how I did it on my setup (identical to yours).
