[Morrow] power plugs for Morrow 560 radios

[Bob DeVarney W1ICW]

This will not be an easy search. If I recall correctly, I got lucky 
scrounging through a friend's (hoarder) junk box. The tough one to find 
is the one with different sized pins. I'll check to see if I have any 
left here but I doubt it.

FWIW I did a search on eBay for "phenolic plug" and came up with the 
right items. Might take a couple of searches to get exactly what you 
need. eBay seller "k5svc" seems to have most everything you need at a 
glance.

When I got my twins there were no power cables included. Not only did I 
have to scrounge the connectors but I had to make up a custom 
multi-conductor cable as well. There is an electronic surplus place in 
New Hampshire that had multi-conductor wire in the correct gauges and 
also nylon braid that I used for the outer sheath of the cable. They 
sell all wire on the spool for $3 per pound.

I cut open the multi conductor cable and stripped out the number of 
wires I needed. I had to use larger gauge wire for the filament and 
ground leads, and silicon test lead wire for the high voltage. Then 
wrapped everything in the nylon braid. Made for a nice looking end result.

Stick with it, the Morrows are a great working (and sounding) rig. I'm 
done electrical restoration, next step is cosmetic for me. Then I just 
have to find room in the shack for them :-)

VY 73 and gud luck,
