To Paul, K3PG: Paul--I recently decided to get my first amp. Ron Baker, WB4HFN, told me that a kit to change the two pin VOX relay plug on the AC-4 to an RCA phono connector is sold by John Kriner. Look at his ePay store: The Man's Amateur Parts Supply. I bought two from The Man this weekend, at $12 a pop with shipping. I am going to try my own B line with an amp, too. Hopefully, neither the 600 watt Ameritron or the B line will blow up when I hook them together! Good luck. 73, Tony N3WAK In a message dated 2/15/2010 12:01:20 P.M.

Thanks for inquiring. 73, Duane Duane Calvin, AC5AA Austin, Texas www.ac5aa.com _____ From: Duane Calvin [mailto:ac...@ac5aa.com] Sent: Sunday, February 14, 2010 7:52 PM To: 'drakelist@zerobeat.net' Subject: National NC-190 - another project radio I know, this is the Drake list, but let me try one more here. I'm cleaning the shack, and this was to be my project radio. The NC-190 is one of National's "blue" radios. It has a bandspread dial that is calibrated on both sides - one for ham bands, one for SWL. With a flip of the knob, the dial switches around to one or the other. This one is currently not operating - no audio. When I first received it it could hear BC band stations weakly. Since it was to be a project radio, I didn't worry about that. Today I put a speaker on it and could not hear BC band stations at all. So, something is no longer working correctly. Cosmetically it's average. Front panel is in good condition, knobs need cleaning, and I've never removed the cover to see what the internals look like. The top of the chassis looks OK. Everything is here except a cardboard "modesty panel" on the rear. I can send photos if interested. I've listed it on Ebay, but will be happy to sell it to a Drake-ster for $70 plus shipping / packing / insurance. This one will finish up the boatanchors that I need to remove from the shack. Let me know if you're interested. 73, Duane Duane Calvin, AC5AA Austin, Texas www.ac5aa.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This extension was an exact fit for the receptacle on the power supply.you can also bring out the two wires thru the chassis ans go from there. Note that some early ac 3 units did not have this connector.
