Does this look like something you need?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...ategory=46 71 Andy WD4KDN -- An armed man is a citizen, an unarmed man is a subject.

Its very close...But SMA end looks to be too large. That one would slide
right over the threads if this one. But it is very close! Anyone who may have a C508A would know exactly what I'm talking about. "Nitespark" wrote in message news:yDs9b.55211$uh6.34063@lakeread05...

Trust me....the C508A has an SMA female connector. I have a C510 and
used to have a C508. Michael Brandt wrote: Its very close...But SMA end looks to be too large. That one would slide right over the threads if this one. But it is very close!

Another source you may want to check.....
http://www.jameco.com/cgi-bin/ncomme...r=501 &ctgys= these adapters can get a bit pricey. Pasternack has them for up to $29.95 each. These are for the "precision" adapters and I don't know how they differ in performance for the cheaper ones.

My memory isn't all that good, Michael, but if you take the radio to Radio
Shack, they can probably fix you up. It's a TNA adapter, I'm fairly sure. Good luck. Ed Cregger "Michael Brandt" wrote in message ... Looking for an antenna adapter to fit the miniature fitting on my C508A mini HT. Thanks KA0PWW Mpls, MN |

I was wrong. I think it is an SMA. Sorry.
