Type 44 Antenna Replacement

[J Mawhinney]

Some power antennas have a plug that is compatible to the plug in your 5k.
I lucked upon one on Ebay for $25 that had this plug.  It was an off brand
but continues to work great and had the correct plug that the standard plug
wire connected to.  My guess is that you may be able to find one fairly
easily with just a little searching.
