VTVM 1/4" plugs..

[Morris Dillingham]

I suspect that Heath verified the safety of the audio cables and connectors.
Back then we didn't have the litigious society that exists now that would
require official certification of voltage rating.  Now, no one would dare
produce a high voltage device without the official certification.
