[Drake] Name That Connector

[Garey Barrell]

Bob -

That connector is right up there with the two-pin VOX connector as far 
as finding one.

The original male connector was a Cinch #2675.  I don't think I've ever 
seen a reference to the female chassis mount part.

I have also seen the male connector referred to as a Cinch 5AB2, which 
was an "A/B" battery connector for the old battery sets.

The last reference I saw was for a Cinch #8-1424, which I assume is the 
same connector with an updated part number.

I might be able to come up with a male connector or two, but I suspect a 
female is going to have to come from a parts unit.  The good news is 
that every Drake receiver from the 2-A through the R-4C had one!  The 
bad news is that you don't see many 2 or 4 Series parts units..........
