I have two of the same set Greg.  I carried one for many years in my 
Teletype repair truck for Illinois Bell Telephone Co.  In San Diego I 
have the Bell System Practice (BSP) for the set and may also have a 
spare power cord.

Jack Hart would also know how to use the set.  The practice gives you 
everything you need.  I will make a copy of it for you as soon as I 
get back to San Diego.

Western Electric Co.. (WECo) used those small twist lock cords on 
many of their test sets as well as almost all of their first 
generation Data-Phones (modems)  I have been looking for a source for 
those twist-lock jacks and plugs.  So far have not found them.  I 
think they were originally designed by HUBBELL.

Take care,
Don
