I'm new to the radio world and just bought a Colt Black Shadow (CB Base Station) at an auction. When I got home and tried to hook up my unit the the two power cords that were in the auction box did not fit my radio. Can anyone direct me to a site where I can buy one? I checked at the local radio shack and they don't carry one. Thanks Mike

The easiest thing to do is to take apart the radio, remove the plug from the back of the radio, replace it with a MOLEX 4 pin connector and put it back together.

Or - take a 2 prong connector from a old television set and adapt it to work on the back of your radio.
You won't have a 2nd ground - which is good, but it would still work.

Other forums such as Mauldroppers might have someone who might have one in their inventory - that would be willing to sell it to you.

Have you tried eBay?
