[PSDR] Where does one buy Boonton power sensor connectors?

[Bart Kus]

That looks like a home run.  You sir, are awesome, and all of PSDR 
should know it! :)

80-MC2M (male plug) mates with 80-PC2F (female panel mount receptacle).  
A little pricey @ $18.91 and $14.86 each respectively at newark.com, but 
still far better than not having connectors!

Problem: Solved!

Now for the next trick: avoiding $123 rotary switches.  Need at least 
8-position, 3-deck, single pole per deck.  Minimal currents/voltages 
involved.

After that, the rest of the components are cheap and easy.  Just like me.
