From experience, I think you'll find that its a PL259 / SO239 arrangement. Suits their MBC antenna base:-<div><br /></div><div> https://www.rfiwireless.com.au/mobile-products/mobile-antenna-accessories/antenna-base-uhf-connector-mbc.html#.XBDJO2gzbIU</div><div><br /></div><div>73 de Paul VK5BX<br /><br /><br /><blockquote><br />----- Original Message -----<br /><div style="width:100%;background:rgb(228,228,228);"><div style="font-weight:bold;">From:</div> "John Woolner" <wyehoota@gmail.com></div><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">To:</div><vk1-reflect@crarc.ampr.org><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Cc:</div><br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Sent:</div>Wed, 12 Dec 2018 14:20:54 +1100<br /><div style="font-weight:bold;">Subject:</div>Re: [Vk1-reflect] FW: [Techlunch] Info<br /><br /><br />
Gil, Dennis,<br /><br />
From this RFI specification sheet for a optional short antenna <br />
(http://www.rfiwireless.com.au/media/downloads/pdfs/P-41400-2_CDQ34-71-00.pdf) <br />
it appears that it is an integrated N connector (male on whip, female on <br />
base). But might be good to directly contact RFI tech support to be sure <br />
of any possible complications.<br /><br />
