oups.com... Thanks to everyone for all the suggestions. I ordered a phono plug adapter from Universal Radio, downloaded a manual from BAMA, ordered a 7-pin adapter from Don Garrett and scrounged some wire and phono plugs to make the jumpers. Hopefully this should give me something to do over the holidays. Looking forward to getting this rig fired up. I also scronged a 3.2 ohm motorola speaker from an old police unit which should work fine as speaker. Thanks again and Happy Holidays!! --Ted --KQ4MZ Ted -- I am using an old metal Motorola speaker (circa 1961 - gray and black - 5 years younger than me) in very good condition on my Drake R-4C -- it sounds very good. The rubber on these old cords are brittle -- so I replaced it with new 18-2 lamp cord (black) from the local hardware store (Ace). Reinstalled the Heyco strain relief, put a new Switchcraft phono (RCA) plug on the end of cord and hooked it up ! Greg -- w9gb |
