Dan:

The original connectors are fairly hard to come by. Fair used to have a 
similar connector, with a dog house shape, which did work OK. Surplus sales of 
Nebraska had one that looked ok but required some filing to fit. I certainly have 
seen a number of radios jumped with Molex style connectors. If well insulated, 
they probably work OK.

Occasionally they show up on ebay. Be sure that it is an original, not the 
doghouse one, which are often advertised as original. I do believe they work OK, 
but aren't original.

The original ones I have seen go for 25-30 dollars. I don't know if William 
Perry might have some.

Anyone else know of other sources?
