Ron-
My 39-116 has a brown cloth covered power cord- About the same size as rubber zip-cord, but with two separate white cloth covered rubber insulated wires. Actually, comparing the 39-116 cord to the replacement form Radio Daze, they are externally indistinguishable, except for weave(TPI) of the material. The color is almost exactly the same, given shade variation for age. The 39-116 cord looks- to me- to be orignal to the unit: could just be an older replacement, but I don't think that radio has been messed with in years. (Perhaps they didn't consider it a major modification, and did the usual business thing of getting the best price from different suppliers, and switched occaisionally?)

Seeing the two side by side, I think what I'll do is just put the new cord in as is, since it matches the other so well. Now, should I have a round or flat plug on a 37-650?

If I can get my digital to work(it is apparently on the fritz-again) I will e-mail you directly pics of both.

Thanks for the help! Icon_smile
