Jerry,
Greg is referring to the adapter cable to split the power and pps out of the DB9.
There may be enough interest to do a small second round. The prices would be higher due to the lower quantity. I'll give it some thought while I'm on my short overseas assignment June 4-11.
Happy Memorial Day, everyone!

Greg, to which adapter cable are you referring? From the PC to the DB9?
What I did in the meantime was use breadboarding jumpers. The square female ends typically will press onto the DB9 male pins.
Glad they fit your need.
Steve, sounds like there won’t be another round?

Steve and Jerry -
Thank you for coordinating the acquisition and machining of these End Panels for the TAPR GPS Experimenters Kit. I understand these kits (SynPaQ/E version XTS) are EXHAUSTED at TAPR. Check the TAPR web site for details.

The End Panels arrived from Jerry this afternoon (Saturday, USPS Priority).
They were well packed and I found no oil on my end panels.

The TAPR kit does not include the "jack screws" for the DE-9 connector.
I had these in my parts drawer, Jameco part number: 16548 (75 cents/set).

The kit Looks Great (like new). Now to build the Adapter Cable this weekend.

Subject: [time-nuts] GPS Kit Plates
Hello again, fellow curmudgeons,
I sent out more shipping notices this morning and plan to hit the PO in about 5 hours.
When you receive your plates and prior to mounting, please clean them with soap and > water or even windex or simple green. I cleaned the machine oil off to the limit of my > patience but there might be a little left. I’ve not seen any interaction between the
machine oil, windex, etc with the coating.

Jerry
