se8c connectors and cable

Does anyone have the part numbers for the best deal in connectors to use on 10 conductor ribbon cable?  How about cheapest source for 100' of cable.

Go into some electronics store in your area and buy the connectors and cable.  Otherwise Digikey (the catalogue is a nightmare).  I get mine from a local electronics store. Once you weight in the minimum order and shipping, your better off finding a local source.

The cheapest I've found so far is at Tony's Trains...look under the manufacturer "RR CirKits".  I believe it is $10.49 per 100' roll of the ribbon cable, and $5.29 for a box of 25 of the headers.
