Robert,
As such, the cord that you describe is not made by Olympus. Such a
cord was made by Duo-Sync but is long out of production.
What you could do however, is to use a TTL Connector 4 (OM2n) and a
TTL
cord to a TTL A20 connector (now hard to get also-but available). This
would deliver your TTL controls to a remote hotshoe for your flash.
IMHO, the T20 or T32 would be the most logical solution. Look closely
into the capabilities of the T32 and the limitations of the T20 before
you spend your money though.
