Comments - You can eliminate either the 12 pin Molex <tm> connector or the push -on right angle connectors, but not both. Unless you never wish to remove the board from the set. The most reliable way is to eliminate the push-on connectors on the board itself and retain the Molex. Please note, the pins and sockets in the Molex are >not< either of the two standard sizes Molex produces. I did some work on Fred Hudspeth's board, and was lucky enough to find some replacement pins which fit at Skycrafters in Orlando. Do I do this again, I'll simply reuse the existing pin or socket, and solder and heatshrink an extension as required. The pins and sockets >will< come out of the block individually using the regular Molex tool. Please use this tool or its generic substitute, otherwise you will almost certainly FUBAR a very hard to find part.
