Hi all.
Does anyone have one of this type of co-ax connector knocking around perchance, or know of anything very, very similar that could be easily adapted?
It's from the inside of a t40 mobile aerial boot-mount and I'm after one for a mate. I've taken my own mount apart to take a couple of pic's of the connector in question. The co-ax could be soldered directly into the mount, but that's not an ideal solution if one of these can be sourced.
Cheers TM1.

Re: Internal antenna co-ax connector
We'd looked at different aerial connectors and adapters. Those ones fit internally (not externally) on the outer piece and the inner sticks out way too far. I suggested the co-ax could simply be soldered in place, but that's not the way to go if it can be helped.
Thanks though

Re: Internal antenna co-ax connector
Is it not possible to both the female and male connectors to something more readily available?

Re: Internal antenna co-ax connector
I haven't got the pictures on my phone anymore Dave, but the receiving connector on the base itself is part of the moulded base, not a separate fly-lead etc. There's no way of adapting it whatsoever.
The only other way would be to solder the co-ax on directly which isn't a collector's ideal choice. This is actually to help out Mark, Bigpimp who has a Tagra t40 aerial and boot-lip mount like mine, but the connector and co-ax are missing. I've never seen this particular connector used in any other aerial.
I took my own base apart and sent him a few pic's so he can look out for one, but I thought I'd ask on here too as I can use my base for reference if anything looked close.
I'm still on the lookout for the associated Tagra t40 magmount for it, but they're very hard to come by.
