Yes. The word phono is an abbreviation of the word phonograph, because this connector was originally created to allow the connection of a phonograph turntable to a radio receiver, utilizing the radio as an amplifier. This setup was present in most radios manufactured in the 1930s onward by the Radio Corporation of America (RCA). -- JT Croteau, N1ESE - Manchester, NH _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
