Leads for HP 1630 logic analyzers

[Ian King]

This is probably a hopelessly FAQ, but what the hey, I can't find it in
Google....

I have an HP 1630G logic analyzer that I use to troubleshoot things like my
old PDP-11 computers. I really need more of the leads - the loose lead sets
that plug into the ends of the pod units. I've been watching on eBay, but
all I see are either more modern leads, that won't fit, or entire 1630s,
that go for more than I paid for mine (I guess I was lucky - I do have two
lead sets). The connectors don't have a manufacturer's ID on them, so I'm
assuming they were made by HP; I can't find a listing on either HP's site
(no surprise) or Agilent's.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a source for these? Does anyone have a
private stash for sale?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide -- Ian

Look at all of the various types of available connectors and see if
one of them is adaptable, either directly or on a replacement basis.
Then DIY.
