Locking to a Metz 6 connector?

Mike,
I have a locking cord available, should you be interested.

I'm certain Rollei sells synch cords with the proper locking

I'm even more certain they cost 100x more than the average synch
cord :)
Have a look at Paramount's web site:
http://www.paramountcords.com/rollei.asp
I would call them to confirm the SL66 socket is the same fit as the
TLRs. (I don't own a locking cord but I'd like to know if you find
out!)

Okay -- it isn't really a problem. It's a little annoyance -- an
inconvenience -- that I'd like to address.
The sync cord from my old Metz 45 flash unit tends to fall out of my
SL66 "X" connector far too easily. This has been happening for years
and I am weary of it. I'm guessing that the spring-loaded latch on
the camera's flash connector jack keys into a slot on the sync
cord's
plug. However, this sync cord -- a new Metz replacement -- has no
slot or other means of locking into the camera's jack. Surely
someone
else has run into this problem. Did you find a cure? (I suppose I
could cut a tiny slot in the cord plug but it would take a mighty
fine
blade to do it).
