[Milsurplus] RBM cable use ?

[Robert Downs]

Hue, 

I can confirm that the Cannon K-Series is WK-C3-23C-n/m because there is
nothing called WK-03-23C-n/m.  Where n/m is the fractional inches diameter
of the cable clamp.  If the back shell is threaded, the fraction would be
followed by a letter or letters.  And I can confirm that it is NOT for
powering an LM off of the RBM's dynamotor.  The standard Navy auxiliary
power connector was the same on everything that had one, a male push-button
Large Banana Plug (LBP) type connector, even in a case like the ARB where
the rest of the connectors were Cannon or Aero K-Series.  In the Navy type
LBP connectors, most were made in both straight and right angle back shells
with some having solder glands, some having metal saddle-bar type cable
clamps and some having water proof compression glands (with an O-ring that
was compressed around the cable jacket).

So a hypothetical power cord to run an LM, aside from the back shell
variable and straight or right angle, would all have the same connector
insert, 1-1/4" dia. 5-pin + 1 guide pin.

However, I don't have either 49069 or 49168 in my database.  If you can send
me a front view and a side view photo I might be able to tell you a little
more.

Someone please help me out with this.
I posted maybe last year, or year before even, asking about a cable with 
one end CLT-49069  P-1608
one end WK C3 23C ??"  VAR      P-1601      The "C" in this WK number may be
"0" instead.  Also marked CANNON CED-49168
Someone answered before, telling me it was RBM to frequency meter. 
Was this from RBM receiver switchbox to LM or ?  RBM power supply to freq
meter ? 

Oh, I just noticed this, a metal band with number W-1601 on it.

If it's nothing I envision myself using, I will sell it for say, $12 +
postage.
