Rod, are you talking about the RF No.2 amp or something unique to Australia? There should be no gauge (square otherwise) on the No.2...

I've spent a great deal of time trying to find gauges for the various 'banana plug' types on W/S No. 9 and 11's. Usually I find the right shaped gauge as a filler that fills the spot cosmetically until I eventually turn up the right gauge. At least that's the plan. I had palpitations when I finally got a the right gauge for my 11 set.

You are right Bruce it is a No 2 and I have edited the introductory line to add that

Maybe Hanno could alter the post header

You are also correct it should not have a meter!

and I know your joy at finding that elusive piece

I once found listed on eBay, an "old radio headphone" in a antiques shop in Hawaii at $5 us

It was the headset for a SB22 switchboard that I been searching for over years, and costing a considerably more elsewhere, if available

cheers rod

Default Amp

Hi rod

Some of those Amps were modified for use with the 122 WS aust. In that case a meter was fitted and two of the 807s removed. The meter is a round type, similar to the 122 meter.
