i'm a newbie so i apologize for the probably dumb question but i just ordered the b800. what kind of sync chord will i need to connect a pocket wizard transceiver to the b800?

A 3.5mm to 3.5mm nonattenuating male mono cord. Stereo cords will not work from PW to out lights. Also, the short cords from Radio Shack are attenuating which will squelch the trigger signal trying to pass through it. Radio Shack does carry longer (6 ft) cords that will work. We carry our CSSC cord for that purpose, as well most better stocked "pro" camera stores will also carry them, not stores like Ritz, however.
