WTB - power cord for SB-303

[W6CUX]

I never could understand why Heath used these unsafe, 
non-standard cords on (and only on) the SB-30x and SB-40x 
rigs. No other Heath equipment (that I know of) uses a 
detachably power cord.

I have been replacing the 2-wire power cords on my SB 
equipment with the 3-wire type. For the SB-301/401 rigs I 
replace the 2-pin socket with a flat aluminum cover plate 
drilled for a strain relief. The other equipment (-610 -620) 
usually requires drilling out the 2-wire hole to accommodate 
the 3-wire strain relief.

Jack, I think I saw a 3-pin cable on eBay lately.

Anyone have a spare power cord for the SB-303? I can't 
believe that no-one
has discovered either a substitute part number or a _safe_ 
update/workaround
for this hard-to-find item - was it used for anything else, 
Heath or
otherwise?
