Dave, That's amazing. I have tried four different Radio Shacks and nobody there at any of them had heard of one and I scoured the shelves and the pull out drawers where I found the 4 pin variety residing.
I will give them their part number and special order it. My local shop looked it up on their computer while I waited (they don't seem to offer their catalogs for the customer to peruse any more) and he said they had no such thing in their database. I took him at his word as he had as much grey hair as me & looke like an old timer there. Doesn't say much for the employees at RS or me either I guess, I should have double checked on them anyway.
