I use to be able to buy these speaker connectors at Radio Schack but it's been a long time since I've done so. Does anyone know the technical name for this Mono speaker plug so I can start searching for them and google them by the proper name. I found this one in my audio salvage pile so it will bail me out this time but would like to have 3 or 4 around for future projects which I always seem to have. Thanks Mike

tshows......You gave him info on an adapter. He asked about a simple plug.

Whiteastro what you want is simply a 1/8 inch mono plug. They are pretty much the standard audio plug. The other standard is a 1/4 inch mono plug.
 
Thanks everyone for the help ! Wouldn't you know it like a old dog seeking a bone I couldn't leave it alone and googled it the best I could and found Workman sells a small bag of about 10 pcs. which I purchase from my favorite supplier Walmart.com along with other radio related supplies I needed. With them I keep money on a re-loadable shopping card so there is no credit card or paypal. I just order it and it's shipped to my house. Nothing beats shopping in your Underwear. LOL
 

good company...buy often from them...

Thanks for that link. I bookmarked it. My CB bookmark folder Runeth over. Guess I should go in and edit it. LOL
 
I need to wire up a mic for my Courier Gladiator radios. Radios never came with one.
 
Well to complete the story I soldered my old salvage male plug on my cobra external speak and it ride again as good as new.

Thanks for the help !
