Looking for DC jack for Pro 83 Scanner

[jacrutch]

I am looking for a dc power jack for my Pro 83 RadioShack scanner. No luck at my local RS, so I contacted RS on-line. As you can see by the following, they were absolutely of no help at all.
Does anyone know where I might come up with this part or something similar ? Thank-you. btw I have tried searching the part listing with no luck.

Do you carry this or an alternative ?

The size K coaxial DC power jack does not fit in the PRO-83.

The attached Hosiden part is probably the one used in the PRO-83. I don't have a source that carries this part however.

The answer you get depends on how you ask the question and to whom you ask the question. I had a store look at the list of available parts for this radio and the power jack is not on the list. The radio uses a "B" power jack and is the same radio as a Bearcat 72XLT and maybe the 95XLT. The power jack might be available from them.

Thanks to all for your quick replies. I will see about finding the part using the Bearcat models. Will let you know how I make out.

Although, I was unable to find a new jack. I was able to find someone who was able to get a good solder on the one in my scanner. Once again, thank-you all for your help.
