If you have a junker -A model SCR-274-N, ARA or maybe AN/ARC-5 receiver, 
you have the makings of three plugs for the back of the ARC-5 transmitters 
from the plugs for the RF cans.  Plus three for all of the other model radios 
from the plugs for the IF cans.  You have to add the center pin.

Pomona used to sell several variants of mini-banana pins.  What you have to 
watch out for is the mounted length.  As all six of the above mentioned 
plugs are mounted from the top, the RF plug pins need to be a little longer 
than the IF pin plugs.
