Default Homemade mobile antenna

Hello, I have a Uniden BR330T scanner. I'd like to make a mobile
antenna for it from an old whip antenna that will be cut down to about
16". The diameter at the base of the whip is no more than 1/16".

I'm looking for an adapter (the input on the scanner is of course
female) that I can insert the base of the whip into, and connect it to
the adapter. SMA is preferred, but I'll accept BNC if no such SMA
adapter exists.

Looking at the pictures on websites, I can't tell which adapter would
fit my needs. If anyone could suggest something that will do the job
well, that would be excellent.

Thanks.
