Post the pictures again, maybe just me but they were both u/s!
Also a set description might be helpful (make/model).

Doh, thought that might happen because I used sony imagewhatsit. I'll try and find another site to host them.
BTW It is a Skanti 3000 VHF/DSC (proper commercial set)

Selenia are the UK distributor for Skanti.

The connectors are AMP ones, have a look on the RS website http://rswww.com you need a trade account to order them, but your local marine electronics dealer will be able to get them for you, or PM me.

Selenia are rubbish, I have tried them with no success. They only seem interested in dealing with big ship stuff (fair enough I suppose)
I have tried RS but I don't know where to start looking through 8000 plugs. I'll send you a PM if I find one.
Thanks

Radio Spares will almost certainly be able to supply one. They are on the web. Call into a local Maplins if you have one. It looks like a fairly standard 4 pin connector but make sure you know the diameter of the central plug and the number and position of the little alignment keys. AW Marine at Haslar will also be able to help you. As you say there are about 5 million different types/sizes of connector.

Try changing both the socket and the plug, then you can take your pick from Maplin or RS. Thats what I did to hook up my Yeoman plotter lead.

I think you can take plug apart and rewire it.
