I was just sitting here in my hamshack listening and looking. I noticed
the microphone connector on my Icom transceiver and AEA 2 meter Cb . The
rear of the microphone connector has a two section/ two bolt strain relief.
Seems like if one cut off the main body of the connector and ground the
rough edges, one could come up with a neat gear clamp and be able to install
it without a major dismantle of the clockwork. It looks like the right size
just eyeballing it. I have had the misfortune of breaking a gear clamp deep
in the gears. I had to salvage a clamp from a parts deck and it wasn't easy.
