I have come by an Alinco ALR-206T that I want to put on the test bench,
refurbish, and give to one of the new hams that is going through my class.
Unfortunately, it came without an owner's manual, and while I could probably
figure it out given enough time, a newbie is going to be SOL trying to get
it to fire up.

Does anybody have the pertinent sections out of that manual that they could
scan and send to me ) or copy and put in an envelope
(RST Engineering 13993 Downwind Ct. Grass Valley CA 95945) . I'll be
happy to remit copy and postage charges.

It also needs a power connector. The power connector looks like an
old-fashioned "cheater cord" type of connector with two pins inside of a
rectangular housing about a quarter of an inch high by half an inch wide,
with a small keyway molded into the bottom edge of the housing. Anybody got
a source for these puppies?

There's a manual online at Mods.dk. It's 635-k zipped:

In case that link gets chopped, here's a smaller one:

You might try All Electronics ... they have a large supply of connectors and
other miscellaneous surplus electronic goodies. If you can't find what
you're looking for on their web site, call them up or email them and request
a free catalog. The inventory in the catalog changes every few months, so
you might find something there.
