I'm looking for a dead HP848x (e.g. HP8482A or similar) RF power
sensor head to rescue from the trash. All I need is the connector
(the one to the cable to the readout box)--don't care about any of the
rest of it. Anyone?

Cheers,
Tom

What is that connector? As I recall, this stuff mostly used standard
military-style KPT connectors. If you have a number on it, someone may
have a match.

Thanks for the idea, Scott, but no, they have no spline keying. The
locking ring is threaded, with male threads on the plug on the cable.
I suppose I can get a part number, but suspect if I can even find
someplace that will sell me just one, it will be considerably more
than the cost of shipping a dead unit that someone was going to toss
anyway.

Like an A&N connector?

Could be, or could be someone has a box in their basement.

Well, I'm not familiar with A&N connectors, but I gather A&N deals
pretty exclusively in high vacuum stuff. These connectors aren't
sealed. I'll see if I can come up with a manufacturer and part number
tomorrow.

Doesn't everyone with a basement have a box or two in it? ;-)
