I am trying to purchase a 1970 US Divers Royal AquaMaster. Do I need the Phoenix Nozzle to connect my SPG, Octopus and BCD LP connector or is there another way?

I agree. When first introduced, single hose regs were a less expensive alternative and most divers aspired to own a double hose.From my research it appears that the DA and RAM are bullet proof if maintained properly and that they are simple and breath as well or better that the modern single hose.
Thanks for all the great information. I'll probably be asking lots of questions. I had a Royal Aquamaster back in the 80's and like a fool sold it for $20 because my cat had decided the mouth piece would be a good place to take a leak. The reason for all the "offending LP hoses" is my wife says she won't dive with me with out them. My "PLAN" is to get her to dive it and get her one in the future. She was worried that it is old, I told her so am I and that we have had new stuff crap out during the first dive.
