HI,

I have been  tasked  to build  an extender and  bench test  jig  for  some of  the above modules.
they  all have  edac  (I believe) edge connectors but I am not quite sure how to go about measuring  the pitch to find  the right one?

As the console is american I am  presuming  the pitch is somewhere around 0.15 inch, can anyone confirm and/or  point to mating  connectors (male/female)?

thank you!

Easy way to determine spacing:  Measure from the edge of the first contact to the edge of the tenth contact.  Divide by 10 and you have your number quite accurately.

appear to mate with American "standard" 0.156" pitch, aka 3.96mm edge connectors.

let us know how those modules with the Signeteics NE540 amplifiers check out.  HF oscillation is the norm.
presuming console is Nigel's Dalcon that was in Oceanway B.
