Absolutely, I had forgotten about that. I don't know of any source for
that plug in these days where 50V is considered HIGH VOLTAGE!! :-)
Essentially, it was a "stereo" or three-circuit plug, but instead of the
"ring" portion being metal, it was a fiber insulator. I never took one
apart, but I suspect it also had extra insulation in the "shank"
portion. A "stereo" plug with the ring floating would give a
"double-break" insulation between the tip and shank, but anything over
500V would probably be pushing it.

let a heathkit collector pop in here for a second...
the use of a 1/4" stereo plug is not a good idea either. the original
plug had a really wide band between the tip and ring.
