They are occasionally on ebay for anywhere from $5 to +$20 -- depending on how proud they
are of their cable.

If you cant wait for one to come up on Ebay, you can make yourself one.
<grin>

Mouser sells:
3W3 plug housing for $1.37US (part# FM3W3P)
D-sub housing 50 ohm contacts for $3.31US/ea (part# FMX1067)

you can mate the contacts to three RG-174/U 50 ohm coax cables, that's available for
$27.50/100ft spool. (part# 8216-100).

If you want a DB-15 connector at one end, that add depends on the connector style (pin
inserted or solder to existing wires in shell), but you can guess around $5.00.

If you want BNC at the other end, the hex crimp connector, for a RG-174, is $2.27/ea
(part# 31-315-RFX)

{you will need a good coax crimper with RG-174 crimping capabilities!  If you have one, or
can barrow one, great, else that will be another $50)...

Some black tape to bundle it all together....

About $45

If you are making more than one cable set, that massive cable spool will be useful and the
cost per cable will come down.

A word of wisdom, stay away from DB-15, if you can, it's a pain trying to solder those
coax wires to the DB-15 connectors.  Get a set of barrel connectors, a DB-15 to BNC
connectors and a DB-15 gender changer.
