I just acquired a box of Command Set connectors on a swap deal. The
majority are SCR-274-N open wire style (PL-xxx-A. Unfortunately, all of the WW-II
12-pin and 18-pin appear to be PL-154-A and PL-153.A. However, there are
also some of the A.R.C. Type 12 connectors including some 19-pin ones that
can be turned into an A.R.C. 9585 or 6962 equivalent. One thing that none of
us who mentioned converting 19-pin connectors to 18 mentioned is that on
all of the WW-II vintage, the contacts are numbered. On the 19-pin's, they
are lettered. So anyone going to wire one of them would be advised to make up
a simple conversion chart before beginning.
M = 1
B = 2
C = 3
etc.
S = 18

There are also a fair number of chassis males (again ATA or SCR-274-N) if
someone has a rack or etc. missing connectors.
