Dick,

Are you close to a Radio Shack? They have the " adaptaplug" adapters 
there. Also they have several loose on a length of wire for test 
fitting. The sizes Like " M " are universal so far as I know. This link 
give a chart with plug sizes and conversions to the Adaptaplug.

Then you could either use the Adaptaplug system or go to their parts 
drawers and grab the correct size of the DC coaxial connectors.
