[ARC5] ARC-5 Question

Decided to get an ARC-5 receiver going. Have not played with one since I 
was a kid back in the 60's. The one I am working on is the 190-550 kC as 
I want to use it to listen to beacons.

I am using the conversion instructions out of the "Understanding Amateur 
radio" book which was what I used back in the 60's to convert a number 
of sets. I am not going to rewire the filaments. Will run off 24 volts.

The issue is that this particular receiver has a 6 pin plug behind the 
front panel with no center pin. The diagram shown in the book is for a 8 
pin with center pin. I have several receivers and see both types of plugs.

Doe anyone have the diagram for the six pin plug to hook up the panel 
with jack, volume control and BFO switch?

Or can someone point me in the right direction?

Tnx and 73,

Dave N7RK
