Does anyone on here have an idea where I can get a replacement power cable
for my AC-4 power supply?  I'm talking about the cord carrying the filament,
B+, bias, and switch voltages going to the Jones plug.  (Not the AC power
cord).  If all fails, I guess I'll have to make up a harness out of discreet
wires and bundle them together.  I hate thinking of doing that.  (The
present cord is shot, cut, kaput)!  I can't find a wire supplier with the
appropriate number of wires and wire size needed to make one up and it
appears places like Allied or Mouser either want to sell 100 or 1000 foot
spools of control wire if I could even find the right cable.  The Jones plug
is in OK shape.  I think the cable was probably made up special for Drake.
(I can live with the wrong `wire colors.  I can even live with more wires in
the bundle doubled up to handle the filament current if required to do so.
I just don't want so many extra wires that the cable diameter becomes to
much larger then an original cable).

Maybe someone has an AC-4 with a burned out power transformer and bad
electrolytics I could purchase.  I'd sure appreciate hearing from anyone
with ideas on how to handle the problem.  I'd prefer either a salvaged old
cable from an AC-4, a new piece of power cable that would have the correct
wires within it, or a burned up AC-4 supply with a good cable.  What have i
not thought of on this?
