Hi Fella's
I am in the process of restoring an HW-202 back to as mint a radio as I
can. I was able to get quite a few of them in various states of
condition for very little money, and the idea is salvage all the really
nice parts and make a perfect (close to perfect) radio for keeps. Well,
this radio uses small male and female pin/plug connectors for the
connection between the wiring harness and circuit boards and I would
like to replace them with new ones preferably gold plated. Do you know
where I could get an item like this? The originals look like they are
tin plated and might become problematic with vibration and corrosion
Or should I just use some sort of gold plated post instead and skip a
removable pin/plug of the original? Thank you in advance for looking
this over for me.

Best wishes

Samtec should have what you need. I am not sure if these are the 0.150 inch
pin field headers.
