Thanks to E.V.E.R.Y.O.N.E. who answered the call. So many suggested making my own by drilling some metal to fit the mounting hole pattern and then drilling a hole in the center for a threaded bnc connector. This was a hugely common idea (great minds think alike apparently!)

But the winner of this idea was Mr. Craig Smith who pointed to OHR.COM - they actually make the adapter plate for just this very purpose! Who woulda thunkit? For those mildly interested, here it is:

Go here and check around the middle of the page: "SO-239 to BNC Conversion Kit"

And only $7.50 for two instead of $30 from pasternack! That is good economics! Probably couldn't make myself for that price with any kind of quality.

Thanks again EVERYONE!
