[ARC5] T-17 Microphone

[WA5CAB--- via ARC5]

A common tale of woe with T-17's is the cord.  Brittle outer jacket, 
brittle insulation, or both.  This has been true for at least 20 years.  Some 14 
years ago, I had a chance to buy a lot of M-52A/U.  This was the post-Korean 
War (late 1950's) dog-bone shape replacement for the T-17.  But no one ever 
wants one of them so for years I've been salvaging them for the cord.  I 
don't have as many left as I thought I did but probably far more than the few 
needed here.  Cord has #2 ring lugs one end, to match PL-68.  Other end may 
have three insulated wires sticking out of the jacket, or may be straight cut 
off.  Because the mics have been in the sealed bags for 55-60 years with 
the cords coiled up, the mics need to be hung from the plug for a while to 
straighten them out.

Cord as described - $15 plus $2.50 postage.
Cord with PJ-068 one end - $20.00 plus $2.50 postage.  The black plastic 
sleeves on the PJ-068 and PL-68 are the same except for what's printed on 
them.
