EAI TR-10 Patch Plugs

2015-12-19 Thread Dave Wade
Folks, I own an EAI TR-10 analog computer which sadly came without any patch cables and accessories. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, BUT the TR-10 comes with special resistive plugs which go at the ends of the patch leads. These have a 4mm plug and socket with a 10k or 100k resistor in betwe
