New Japanese portable radios feature a standardized coaxial power connector
which is color coded according to voltage (e.g. for the new SONY shortwave
portables yellow means 6V). They are center pin positive and form factor
INCOMPATIBLE with every 'universal adaptor' presently sold. The barrel
appears to be 4MM as opposed to 2.5 or 5mm+ sizes presently used, and
the center pin is VERY LARGE compared to the relatively thin barrel size.

Anyone have a source for these things?
