I read the DC-8 manual and it states that the control cable should be limited to 10 feet. With that being said I've successfully been using 2 chords connected together via a coupler without any issues.
I decided to clean things up. In doing so, I made a single cable and ran it better from the DC-8 to the AC Jr. The pinouts are correct but for some reason the second outlet (A2 in this case) turned on without any command/reason to do so. Never had this issue with the two connected cables.
My thoughts are, maybe the ends are not "clean". My other thoughts are that maybe there is some electrical interference as the new cable runs next to the power chord going into the stand.
Any thoughts??
I am going to try to run the two connected cables the same route as the new cable and see what happens.
