That's pretty much what they give you. It is a two conductor unshielded
wire, with a 1/8 inch plug on one end, and stripped wires on the other end.
One of the 4 antennas I bought didn't have the cable, but at 10 dollars, I
bought it anyway.

It doesn't need to attach to most radios, just set it alongside. It's an

impedance
matcher to the loopstick inside the radio, forming a transformer.

If you don't have a loopstick inside, run any old 3.5mm audio cable

(probably) to
the antenna terminals on the radio, for which probably you will have to

adapt the cable
but perhaps not at the radio end. 3.5mm monaural is a good guess (as

opposed to stereo).
