The twin-ax connectors are the ones that look like UHF which coupled up.  I 
have a number of the chassis and a couple of the cable ones.  Also have some of 
the earlier 2-pin cable connectors marked 77 or 3146.  Don't have any cable, 
though.

Of the other odd-ball connectors used on these sets (the ones where you 
rotate the connector body to couple it up) I have one or two of several numbers 
left.  But don't have the flanged sleeve and nut for the back.  However, given a 
nut, the sleeve could easily be made on a lathe.

Also, if anyone is looking for one, I just stumbled across a Yellow-tagged 
BC-434-A in nice condition.  No connector-base plate, though.  Must have stayed 
in the aircraft when this one was pulled and inspected.
