Replacing a DK96 wiith two 1j24b

[Mike Watterson]

Here is the first stage:

Make a screen, ideally with two compartments, a little shorter than straight part. Bend back the g3, shield and f- wires to solder to the shield. It will connect to the f- pin of the B7G socket.
   
   

Here is the plug made out of the bottom third of a pin protector and jumbo paper clips. The wire diameter is only slightly more.
   
I can't find the rest of my silvery ones. I don't know what the plating is, but it solders well. I bought two boxes in Eason's, Essential brand. They are allegedly brass plated and also solder fine.
