brad,
i have an original female connector. will the antenna lead reach all the way to the radio? if so, does the radio have the little pill box on the outside where the antenna goes in? or does the antenna wire just go thru a hole into the case?
contrary to what chas said, Ford [in my experience, anyway] used a braided internal conductor, 18 or 20 gauge. i'm using a modern coax cable. works fine.
a BA9 bulb socket will work, but is slightly oversize for the male plug.
