I think that the miniature banana sockets are still made by Pomona and you 
should be able to get them from a number of distributors.  While you're at 
it, the males are also available.  One of those plus a connector salvaged 
from a gutted ARA or SCR-274-N (-A suffix only) will make a plug that fits the 
connector on the rear of the receivers and all but the AN/ARC-5 transmitters 
(for the ARC-5 ones, use one of the IFT plugs)..
