Don't know about the crime but I do know about SB-303's.
That common cheater cord won't work.
The 303 used a "rare" line cord. Three wire, round pins. No longer
available but you can make a workable substitute.
Go to Radio Shack and buy their $4.99 "Mickey Mouse" line cord.
It's used on Dell laptops and some others. Take a hack saw and
carefully cut Mickey's ears free. Cut. Check the fit. Cut a
little more.
At some point, you'll be able to JAM the cord onto the SB-303. I
think the electrical pattern is the same but you should check that
yourself. ESPECIALLY since Heaths were home wired!!!
I've thought about doing a production run of "real" line cords
as there are some 50,000 -100,000 receivers made that use this
weirdo. Many cords have been lost, all are getting tired.
