Hi. I found a few really old posts about this plug, but no part
numbers or sources. Anyone know where I can find one of these plugs?
One post said it was used on the HB-400 radio. It's round, with round
pins, shaped like a "Y" (or a crows foot).

I don't need it for a CB, though. It was used on an old Rheem combo
(portable) organ for the volume pedal.



I only have a few and I'm keeping them because I haven't found a
retail source. They have been used on lots of different stuff and
that's where I find them, so just keep looking. If you get desperate
you can always do the old wire-&-epoxy trick and mold yourself a new
one -- I've had to do that more times than I care to remember.

Thanks. can you give me an idea of the kind of things that used
these, i.e., a particular model/line of CB or something? I might be
able to locate a broken one on eBay for cheap, and talk the seller
into hacking off just the plug. hey, I might check the thrift stores,
too!



Oddly enough, I think Radio Shaft used the same connector in some of
their old car stereos. They used to sell a wiring harness with the
plug. You might check to see if they still keep it in stock (and if
it's the right one). If that doesn't pan out, the best place to find
them is inside old tube-type phonographs and cabinet stereos.
