[Antennas] Mobile Antenna Question

Hi All,

I just recently bought a Diamond K-400 mount from a friend and he threw in
an Opek HVT-400.  I realize from looking at reviews and so on this probably
isn't a great mobile antenna but the price was right and it fits the PL-259
style mount of the K-400.  The only problem is that he was unable to find
the cable with banana plugs on it to connect the tap points.  Does anyone on
the list know this antenna and how long this cable should be?  Or, if this
proves not to work well, does anyone have a suggestion for the best quality
adapter to adapt the K-400 to allow use of an antenna with the 3/8X24 thread
such as the Hamsticks?

Thanks much for any suggestions and very 73 to all.

Kevin :)
