Use a stero plug with the ring terminal not connected to anything on
your antenna.

Mark,
You're saying simply a 1/8" stereo plug to use soldering onto the end of my
long wire?

What difference would that make now, in that it's working fine and all?

I'm trying to remember what happened at the shack the day I went up there and
asked them for that, they didn't have it or something-or the guy gave me the
package and I didn't look.

Matter of fact, it had two of em' in the pack and I stapled it closed after I
used the one, this is what's on the end of my long wire now cat#274-288A Two
Conductor 1/8" shielded phone plugs.

That is 'exactly' what it says on the package, so I asked for stereo (the right
one) and nit knowing what it'd look like I trusted the guy I suppose, it's been
a while.

You're saying this is a 'mono' plug? I'll call the shack now and give them the
cat# and ask them or type it in their website, but it doesn't say stereo OR
mono on it. {?]

It has the tip, then just a tad of space then a black circle on it, if that
helps identify it. I'll look at the pic of the one link of the proper one and
compare it to this one I have here.
