Variometer wire to antenna
What fitting do I need for the underside of the No8 antenna base in order to fit the wire from my variometer? Is it one of those Lucas type pointed screws that just press fits the wire inside the threaded tube?
I’d post a photo but I keep getting an error message.

Sounds like you are missing the donut and plate assemblies the No. 8 Aerial Base rests on, and if so, you will so need a pigtail connector to make it all work.

Thanks for your reply, David. Here's what I have. I had to come home to my computer to make the photos work.

It's called connector, pigtail, No. 1, ZA1868. It's about 7 cm in length and the screw portion measures as a #10-32 thread.

Thanks, Bruce. Does that then connect to the back of the variometer or do I need yet another fitting? That seems awfully short.
