JM found has a male F connector and the most common F connector for coax
JM is also a male so you will probably have to come up with a
JM female-female F adapter to match them up.


In a pinch a little tube type adaptor with 300 ohm pig tails could be
directly soldered to the twinlead. Also a combiner with a 300 ohm port
will typically have a male F.
