Perhaps I led you astray with that comment regarding different plugs. I
should have said that both radios have external antenna plugs, but they
require different types of plugs. The Grundig takes a 1/8 inch mono plug
such as the type usually used for mono earphones. The Sangean takes a
different plug from what I understand,

Why don't you go to Radio Shack, and get the two kinds of plugs you
need, and then attach both to the center conductor of your coax, using
a little hook-up wire and solder. Then just plug the antenna directly
into each radio. You seem to be getting too many variables from
clipping onto your whip.

It's also possible the proper plugs came with each radio, no need to
go to Radio shack.

Learning about plugs is a part of SWLing :-)
