Helicopter headset plug - help needed

[NewsGroups]

I need some help for a customer on wiring a helicopter headset plug into
the XCOM rado.

The plug in question is known as a Nexus plug or a US Nato plug or a
U-174/U or a TP-101, you can see how it becomes hard to find out what
this really is.....

Does anyone know what the different connectors are ??

Tip 1
Ring 2
Ring 3
Ring 4

Thanks in advance.... Michael Coates

I have an old Army SPH-4 (Viet Nam style helicopter type - well duh)
and use an adapter cable I got at flighthelmets.com (?).

If you find out what the rings connect to, let me know?

My pleasure, glad to be of help. (My helmet has one of these, short cable,
with longer adapter to regular GA plugs,)
