NEEDED [PC-side] Extender Card for IBM 5161 Expansion Unit

[luvit]

.

I bought an IBM 5161 Expansion Unit knowing that the only card I had was in the 5161.
I am in need of the Extender Card that will go into my 5160 XT.
Thanks, so much for any help you can give.

Your constant whining is starting to work...;-)

Hypothetically, supposing I had one, what would it be worth to ya?

Got a part number by any chance? And how about a number for the other end?

I have what you want, but I sell it only as an complete package (Expansion Unit + Transmitter and Receiver card).

Unfortunately I do not have the cable between, and shipping would be expensive...

FWIW, the cable wouldn't be THAT hard to make, nor that expensive. IIRC, it's what? a 62-pin connector, with each wire being shielded? I'd try that before selling it without the cable (ie, so I could prove that the extender/receiver cards work properly)

You can find the cable listed on a number of sites; don't know whether there's any actual stock though.

Wasn't there a project to recreate this card/expansion at some point or was that more of a nice idea that I just remember being mentioned? Seems like it might be a cool project for those with the knowledge.
