[ARC5] BC-696-A Possibility? And TCS

A little bondo and dabbing a bit of wrinkle paint a la Stinson may work here. A banana plug fits a SO-239 if you just want to plug in a wire antenna.

 It so happens that the diameter of the insulator mounting hole is a
 perfect match for an SO-239 OD.  Add four screws and it may look like a
