A short piece of solid electrical wire can be stripped at both ends and plugged in [carefully to the correct? pins]. maybe you need #12, or 10 ? to fit snugly. With two pairs of good pliers, you should be able to make it like a staple.Then leave it there
Its safe. If you are concerned with accidental contact with the socket you can put a piece of tape across it. Or, simply unwire the socket and link the necessary wires internally.

If a DC power plug is not available for the back of one of the SX series radios, is it safe to bridge across the terminals inside the radio? Think its pin 6 & 7 but dont remember for sure. Or a suggestion on where I may find one of these? Imagine they may be getting difficult to locate.
