I bought mine from one of those connector venders at a hamfest. Check out 
some of the venders websites that service your area. I'll bet you will find 
them there...

Hello Gerald,

I have some threaded caps here that work very well. It is a red soft
plastic threaded cap that screws onto the standard 8-Pin "Foster"
microphone connector. If you visit their website, you'll see that they
have a large assortment of caps of all types and sizes. The information
that is stamped on the cap that I have here is:
"CAPLUGS CD-67" and here's a link to their website:

<
https://www.caplugs.com/series/Threaded_Plastic_Caps_for_Flared_JIC_Fittings/1057.html
>

As you scroll down the page, you'll see "CD-67 Bag of 100", but that
doesn't appear to be selectable. Continue scrolling further, and you'll
see "CD-67" that is selectable.

Unfortunately, it looks like they sell them in primarily large quantities,
but perhaps if you contact them, they'd be willing to sell you a small
quantity or send you some free samples.

Instructions to order free samples:
