Several of my RBx (x = A, B, or C) receivers were missing their Navy 
Type 49120/49121 connectors.

On a couple of them, I was able to buy the socket on eBay for cheap and 
every now and again you see the plugs for sale.

On a few of them, I replaced the missing Navy Type 49120/49121 with a 
type N using a piece of aluminum to bridge over the nasty modification 
done previously.

Thanks much and 73,
