In case the interested party is now reading the list again, I am repeating the following message concerning a special design AC power plug which was popular in the '60s, before all (ha!) outlets were converted to 3 wire.

---------- Original Message ----------

Many months back, someone was looking for the style 120 VAC plugs (attachment caps) used back in the 60s on test equipment (and other things) which featured a ground pin which rotated to the side in order to plug into 2 wire receptacles.  Whoever it was, please contact me off list at W5VPQ at ARRL.NET.  I believe it was someone in VE land, but I did not keep a copy of the inquiry.  I have much more useful information now.
