Howdy,

Anyone out there have a source for the male & female 4-pin connector used on the shadowmeter? I've searched the net but, alas, no connector or a reasonable facsimile. I need to get a couple of sets. Thanks,
Joe

You might look around and see if you can find vintage 4-pin connectors such as those used for old radio batteries - the connectors are similar. Or you could hard-wire the shadowmeter to the radio chassis...this was done on some lower-end 1937 Philco models such as the 37-630.

Thanks for the tip. I had to rewire the speaker harness and wanted to be able to disconnect the speaker from the chassis when I'm removing both from the cabinet. It's awkward hanging on to both. Thanks!
