<x-flowed>You might check with Digikey and see if they have the replacement cable,
they have many odds and ends of cables, secondly, I use an IC socket
whenever I have a plug to plug into a UUT (Unit Under Test). The plugs for
the Fluke pods are also vulnerable to breakage, hence a nice 40 pin IC
socket get put on them...works very well, just make sure the pins of the IC
socket are flat the same way as the regular CPU...
