[Collins] Replacement RCA connector

[Gary Harmon]

Hey Mark.  If it is the RCA connector that mounts with two screws I can send
you one or two.  Keep it original, even if the BNC is better.

Holey instant inflation!

Methinks folk are trying to pull legs here.

RCA connector, unless I am way off base this is the same thing as a 25  
cent phono connector.  Or you can get them for free salvaged off  
junked consumer electronics.

But wait.  Why are you having to replace it?  That should tell you  
phono connectors are no good.  So to keep from having to screw with  
this later, replace it with a BNC.  Then you can claim you did not  
make the same mistake Collins made putting a substandard connector in  
there in the first place!
