[ARC5] Power connector for the RCA RBC-3 Receiver

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Last I heard, Bill was getting $50 for NOS original U-7/U.  But his prices 
on most vintage AN or MS connectors has been between $10 and $20 (generally 
the same as mine), not including the AN 3057 cable clamps.  You can also buy 
most MS connectors from Allied for $30 or less.  Only thing wrong with them 
is the color.
