power cords and plugs
 
Where can I find either made-up power cords, or power plugs for a couple of
old marine VHF radios?

I have a Polaris Regency and Sea Ranger I need power cords for. The plugs
aren't readily available, but were standard ones for those vintages of VHF
marine radios.

I don't remember what the Sea Ranger used, but almost all of the Regency
Polaris models used a common, off the shelf connector made by Molex. The
type used was called "standard .093". The pins were crimp-on style, best
with the proper crimpers, but doable with care with long nose pliers and a
Leeeeetle (emphasize Leeeeetle) bit of solder. They seem to be listed in all
the popular electronic parts catalogs, on and off line. For a while, maybe
still, Radio Shack stocked some sizes of the plastic bodies and the pins.
..093..... NOT the .062.

My Sea Ranger scanning VHF has been a really good radio.

Thanks for the info.
