Did you get the interface board without the cable?
It is *very* hard to find a single cable.
This round 10-pole connector on the NRD-525 is *very* special and I did
not find it or the counterpart anywhere.
Best idea is to change the connector on the 525 to a DB-9 connector for
using a standard serial port cable.

I went lucky, the seller of the interface gave the cable with it back
then... :-)

He might wish to contact Universal Radio to possibly find out what type of
connector(s) it is and then make up a cable, if the same connectors are
available.

Another thought might be to change the original connector to say a 10 pin DIN
.... if it isn't that already, and then build the new cable from there.

You want to make someone laugh or cry? ;-)

Adding a DB-9 connector is the common (and simple) solution for this
problem.

Creating another unique solution is not much recommended.
A 5-pin DIN-plug should do the trick as there are not more wires
connected in a serial cable.
It is much more easy to solder and available on every corner.
Just in case the new plug absolutely should fit in the hole.
