MK1 President Lincoln issue

Post by Queball »

Just got the Lincoln set up after a while. All is intact but like to listen it through the extension speaker but can't find the adaptor to plug into the cell block at the back of it. I know truck king used to sell them. Just wondered if anyone had any link to getting hold of one. Can only describe it as being a 3.5mm jack plug with the other end being 2 pins that plug into the Lincoln. Any help would be appreciated.

The standard "white" 2 pin connector is only used with the internal speaker Gareth . To hook up an external speaker you need the "accessory" plug , or a bespoke version with just the 2 wires for the external , with no PA , or CW wires . I've just done one for a member on here , but I'm away from home now . Do a forum search on "Molex" and you'll find info on them .

I have the accessory plug but can't find it anywhere. Does anyone know of a supplier to obtain another one.
I know the simple thing would be to modify the back panel to accommodate a jack plug socket but want to avoid that if possible.

I can make you one , but won't be able to do it till Easter. Think there's a guy in the States doing them too. Search Ebay for HR2510.

Hi Gareth.

I've still got you down on my list for Easter. I did Mark's one last month when I was home.

Cheers
