Thanks fellas.  I'll see if I can win it.  It kinda looks like a head-phone cable that you would plug into a walkman. 
If I lose I'll just see if I can hack up a cable for use.  8)

Yea I asked the seller what is was the first listing but he didn't know so I made him take some mor epics and we figured out what it was. He had it listed as a Sega Saturn to PC Engine cable and I was like WTF is that??

You can pick one up at your local Radio Shack - it uses a standard 1/8" stereo plug.  :wink:

Yeah I'm going to go that route.  Looks like a power seller is willing to drive up the price.

I did some tests after I found a Turbolink last year and wrote about it here:

1/8" stereo cables are the way to go.
