[AMRadio] AMers all "old-timers"?

Ellen, the mic connector sounds like an Amphenol 80MC2M.  They are 
available for about 12 dollars each if you don't scrounge one.

There is a picture there for you to compare.  Wonder if any wires are 
connected to the BNC connectors?  And if the holes above the meter are 
empty then it is a moot point provided nothing was disconnected 
internally to hook to whatever was there.

The solid state rectifiers are fine and probably will work just fine. 
Keep us posted.
