Dave, thanks for your reply.  I don't think a plug like the one shown in the eBay item will work.  It appears to be polorized for one pin larger than the other.  The pins on the FRR-502's power plug are twist lock, but are the same size.  Mike, W6MAB

  Mike and Michael:

  I have some NOS Hubbell 7427 Twist-Lock female connectors, identical
  to the one used on this eBay item: 281044403180

  They are one inch in diameter.  Let me know if these meet your needs.

The body of the female receptacle must fit within a 1-nch diameter hole.  The standard hardware store receptacles do not fit inside this hole.  I would rather find the correct receptacle than booger the chassis by enlarging the hole.  Thanks for any help.  Mike, W6MAB
