[Heathkit] HR-10 Receiver Sockets

[TominNTX]

John,

Try this website. I looked at my (poor) pictures of the HR-10B chassis, 
and the sockets referred to below appear to be similar:

Or try this:

http://www.leedsradio.com/parts-sockets.html#sockets

Amphenol MIP 7S melamine $9.00 [+  <http://www.leedsradio.com/images-sockets/Amphenol_MIP-7S.JPG>]

Connector Corp 9 pin min, on metal plate - for 1 5/16 mounting   $8.00 [+  <http://www.leedsradio.com/images-sockets/Connector_Corp_9pinmin.JPG>]
(remove the large plate and use what's left?)

9 pin miniature, bottom mount, brown 0.5 inch hole 1.125 inch center-to-center $5.00 (no Picture)

Let us know what you find out.
