I just made a bulk purchase of the accessory connectors for the 5300...I believe these also fit the 98xx series(?)
I'd like to offer them to those on the forums first...and of course I'd like to recoup my investment.
So...If you get with me BEFORE 15March, you can have 3 connectors + 30 pins for $10 shipped in US. Paypal OK
FYI...It may take a few weeks to get them from Asia.
I also have suitable wire...12 pair 22-24 ga stranded that can be discombobulated to make great hookup wire...FREE (+ shipping) with order while it lasts.
After 15 March, connectors will be $5 each.
Thanks, Don kj5kb

They are not the same as the 98xx series. The 98xx series uses the same as the 86xx series.
Clear as mud?
The 53xx series (non-100W) uses the same as the 96xx and 97xx.

Aha!
Thanks for the clarification I.S.
I knew I'd seen a "9-something" with the same connector.
Much appreciated.
FWIW I have a 100W 5300 here...it's the same accessory connector as the 50W ones I've seen. 8-pin JST SM series.

Sorry, I misread the title post of "Accessory". I should take some remedial English courses

I thought it was the power connector.
Ok, so to restate my original post then:
The power connectors are the same on the 96xx/97xx and 53xx NON 100w radios
The power connectors are the same on the 86xx and 98xx radios.
The accy connectors are the same between the 98xx and 53xx radios.
Ok, now back to class for me
I.S.

OK...I THOUGHT it was the 98xx.
anyway. good info to know should I decide to buy a bulk lot of weatherpacks
Anyone have an interest in the female (radio side) connector?
Might be useful to make "in-between" cables if you have a company installed radio and want to make a M-F interface cable to break out the speaker leads.

I am considering purchasing some of those too.

I just received the Accessory connectors; I also got a few of the the female side (radio side) ones.
I didn't get charged customs duty

so the price will stay at 3/$10.
1/$5
3/$10
6/$15
12/$25
Prices include First Class mail shipping in US. Mix or match; i.e if you want 10 males and 2 females for $25, that's fine.
Larger quantities available too.
