[Milsurplus] Re: Insulated Turret Terminals Wanted

[K2CBY@aol.com]

Does anyone have a source to purchase at a reasonable price a qualtity of insulated terminals of the sort used in the R-390 and other military equipment of the late 1950s and 60s? These are the single tie points about 1/2 to 5/8 inch tall consisting of a threaded base (4-40 or 6-32) (male or female) an insulator (bakelite or ceramic) and a turret or forked top. They used to be made by Cambridge Thermionic (Cambion). Military contractors used to use these by the carload, and they were widely available on the surplus market 15 to 20 years ago.
