[Elecraft] Connector question

[James C. Hall, MD]

Hello:

I've been having a ball with my KX1 and ordered one of the Pomona BNC to
dual banana connectors - uh... the minature one. Now I find I need minature
banana plugs to fit ! I was doing fine with a BNC to SO-239 and just
plugging in the antenna with a regular banana plug and clipping the
counterpoise to the barrel. Can anybody recommend a mini-banana or adapter ?
(I may also try out one of those Maldol verticals pictured in CQ's review of
the KX1)

Also I was in Radio Shack looking for the power plugs used in all the
Elecraft kits and in RS, it goes by letters. The closest I could make out,
the M plug was the nearest ... but not exact. I was going to make one with
powerpole connectors and another with banana plugs on the opposite end of
the wire. Can anybody verify the size ?

Thanks and 73,
