Not actually DEC but hopefully someone on the forum can help. I'm looking for a 20-pin edge connector similar to that used for the data cable on MFM/RLL drives but without the locating key in the connector (or with a removable key).
The application is for a test connector on the CPU card used in HP 98x0 desktop calculators. The card has contacts in the same configuration as an MFM drive but without the slot, so a keyed connector won't fit. The only cables I had on hand have the key actually molded in and so far I've destroyed two cables trying to cut out the key without damaging the adjacent contacts.
Any help appreciated - parts, cables, part numbers, etc.
Thanks,
Jack
