Lou, you might consider as I have done over the years going to Home Depot 
and getting both plugs and some wire that will handle the current and make 
your own.  However be sure to do it right for safety of course.  The thing 
now days is if you can find what your looking already made it will perhaps 
be cheaper.  Good luck.  73

Chris,

Possibly but reinstalling the outlets would be more trouble than its worth,
not to mention the hassle of figuring out which breaker 2 floors down
control that outlet so I can cut power. This is a 150 plus year old house
and it would be much easier to get a short adaptor cord. Thanks. lou WA3MIX
