Radio Shack P/N 274-1539 is a 1/4" plug with jumbo shell and screw terminal.
Taking a little time and bending the tabs inside you can make it hold the
pins of the phone cord. May have used a little longer screws, I have made
them work without a lot of trouble. Not as neat as the old adaptor, which
used spring loaded clips but works...Price is right too, $3.99 for 2.
