ham international

hi does anyone know where you can get the plastic plug you stick in the back which has a green wire which loops the speaker so it works and what they are called cheers

I thought it was only the Lincolns that had those? I have a bag full with pins for the Lincolns.

I've found a picture of the back of a rig showing it but not large enough to be able to see it.

Basically it's a Molex connector but that won't help you on its own because there are hundreds of different types of Molex connectors. Personally I'd be inclined to open it up and solder a wire across and permanently link them unless you intend to use an external speaker.

Never understood why they did it that way other than it being a lazy arse method of design to disable the internal speaker when hooking up an external one.

If you can post a picture of the socket on the back of the radio with nothing in it I can at least compare it to the Lincolns and see if it's the same. If it is I can get a plug and pins in the post to you fairly quickly.

Is this what your looking for if it is it's from a original old President Lincoln and not Ham International as for getting one you might get one for sale under the section for rocking horse poo for sale lol on ebay they are very rare to find now , Knights use to sell them long time back he might have some give him a call .01652 64878

And sorry that's mine in the pic and not for sale either

Just checked my MM2 and they defo have the said connector on the back , unfortunately I’ve no idea where you would get one

Craig never seen ones like that, they look smaller than one on my Lincoln

Think they (MM2) were for something called Cell call ?

They do look different though Martin

I had SelCall on my old Stalker 9  Craig never got it work or really knew what is was .
Can the OP tell us what he needs the plug for cos most Ham International radios i knew had ext speaker socket in them even Jumbos did

I wouldn't bother with the plug. Just solder the wires on the selcal socket at the back of the Jumbo, as per Syd the Cat's photo, and you will never have to worry about losing the plug again.
