Hi Jim, you can get the connectors at radio shack #274-339. They come two to a pack for about $2.00. The tip is hollow but the hole does not go all the way through so the end is nicely rounded.

If you need some of the Belden 8421 I still have some left that I sell for 10 cents an inch or $1.20 a foot plus shipping. Email me directly if you need some.

Hello Fellow Drake fans:

I came home from a recent hamfest with a C line. There were no interconnect cables. This has been covered before, but I want to verify (and clarify). A thread dated 12 July 2006 gave me the lengths and the Belden number for the INJ cable.

Is it only the injection cable that should be Belden 8421? Can the others be common (Radio Shack, etc.) audio cables? Would it be best to use RG-58 for the antenna?

And, another question:
I have not been able to find phono connectors with a hollow tip. The kind that the center conductor goes through. The best I have found lately have a small solder eye terminal for both center and shield. It used to be easy to find these. Now I have a wide variety of types I do not care for due to my ordering and hoping they were what I want. If you know of a place, please let me know. A part number would be good!
Thank you,
Jim
