Question if I may, and possible insightful Info. for the OP.
The back the radio shows AC and positive and negative polarity. Seen as how there is no positive or negative conductors in AC, is that Jones plug meant for AC and DC? And if so, I hope that plug comes with a wiring diagram to help the OP...

The vertical pins are for 12VDC and the horizontals are for AC.
These connectors were common on old Regency crystal scanners. I blew up one of mine by reversing the AC wires and when the radio made contact with a grounded antenna it went ka-blewy.
You let the magic smoke out.
Along with the magic sparks and lava.
You guys rock! I found one on eBay BUT they wanted $30 plus crazy shipping. The markings were from me. I traced out the wires inside and the applied DC power. This is on an old (70’s vintage) Robyn High-Low Bander scanner. I ordered crystals that came today. Installed them and this thing sounds amazing! NOW I need to find a source for the light lens covers. I’m in search of two green and a white one.
Thanks for the help!

Since this comes up often, where did you get them from and how much were they?
I ordered from a seller on eBay. $9 each and free shipping. Shipping was quick and they work.

Interestingly, last night I was watching a you tube video of an electronics store in Tucson, AZ. They had millions (it looked like) of surplus panel lights and covers. Elliot Electronics, Tucson, AZ.
