RE: [amsat-bb] G5400 terminal cover

[SANGAT STREAMYX <sangat@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

While on the subject of cover for Yaesu 5400, this was replaced by a 7 pin
connector on subsequent model thatis, Yaesu 5500, and yet another type for
Yaesu 2800. Even these connectors are not readily available.  I can't even
get the Sato 6 pin rectangular connector for the control box.  A friend did
a lot of leg work at Akiabara without any joy. I suppose Yaesu would supply
these at half the cost of the rotator. 

While searching solution for the missing G5400 cover, would someone have any
idea of the availability of 7 pin connector for the EL/AZ G5500.

One of SK G3AAJ's items that I sold recently was his G5400 rotator and
control
box. I neglected, however, to notice that the cover for the wire terminals
on the azimuth rotator was missing and the buyer tells me that these are not

available from Yaesu !

Does anyone have a solution for this (or even a cover from an otherwise
useless
unit) ?  obviously the unit can't go up in the weather with the terminals 
exposed :((
