[Dtb-talk] cable for use with NLS player & cartridge

[Lynn Evans]

It needs to be female on one end and male connections on the other so if you 
wanted to you could connect the two ends and put it around your neck.

Perkins has them with free shipping.

Or when you go  shopping in your favorite electronics store you could take a 
cartridge with you and hold it up to the salesperson and say "you got a 
cable that can fit this?"
