Default Old Headset Wanted


"Richard W. Solomon, W1KSZ" wrote in message

I need a headset for the Instructograpgh I am restoring. Something
along
the lines of what you see old telegraphers using. I remember seeing
some
that had two pins on the end instead of a plug.
Anyone have something like that ?

Tnx, Dick, W1KSZ


Richard, I have an old pair of cans by C.F.Cannon. They have a cotton
covered cord, and it ends in a PL55 type plug that is made by Brach and
labelled shockproof. I can just see the ends ot a pair of pins on the cord,
inserted inside the plug.

These were a birthday present a good many years back from a fellow ham, but
I have never had a use for them and they have remained in a desk drawer
since I received them. (They are still functional.) They have been modified
very slightly by having the word "zippy" engraved on the metal back, just
above the C.F. Cannon "Cannonball" logo to make a set of phonetics I have
occasionally used in years past. I expect to be moving to smaller quarters
in the next few years, and I think your use of them would be more fitting
than anything I can use them for. Yours for the postage if they would be of
use.

Regards
W4ZCB
