[MRCA] rubber covered audio cable for pl55 and pl68

[DSP3]

I probably should add a caveat to my posting. I do not want anyone to 
get the idea that the flexibility of these new cords are the same as the 
originals, they are not.  Usable? Absolutely.  Robert's comment on the 
tinsel type cordage is a real issue.  All the headbands use tinsel cord 
and the special lugs with penetrating points.  In my experience with the 
mic cords and extension cables, using PL-55 (PJ-055B et al), JK-26, and 
PJ-068 most had a cup type solder lug and stranded wire.  I do not 
personally recall tinsel wire within these cords and cables.  What they 
did (do) have is that the 2 or 3 conductors are tightly twisted 
together, adding additional flexibility. All these replacement cords and 
cables do NOT have this internal twist feature.  The only time I've seen 
the twist is in some replacement cords for aviation mics.  Lastly, be 
sure and save the brass crimp rings from phone and mic plugs that secure 
the cord in the plug.  They can be re-used.  Anyway........
