>From Larry W6WUH:

The plugs can be robbed from old style Microphone connectors.

Amphenol made the same large body mic connector shells, for which several
inserts were used.. with various pin layouts, 3 -4 - 5 - 6 pin varieties.

There may be some compatible Shure items, but dunno.

These can be found used:  on microphones, loose,  and sometimes N.O.S.
I found some by asking at an older electronics shop..dusty but new.

Nothing from radio shack nor any current production american or foreign
fits.
Been there, done that.



The trick is to rob the inserts,
and make up your own cables.

But Beware! for 500-B and 500-C
Note that the pinout for the 3 plugs in NOT THE SAME FOR THE GROUNDED PIN !

PIN 4  is grounded on the Power Supply and RF Deck plugs
PIN 3 is grounded on the Modulator Plug.

While Pin 4 on the Modulator Plug is 110 AC.

Use this chart:
