Concerning Zenith 8G005 transoceanic radio, has 2 detachable wavemagnet antennas for shortwave and broadcast band. Able to use the one for shortwave but seem to be missing an adapter connecting the wavemagnet for broadcast band. Have the red vinyl flat twin lead cable that snaps on the wavemagnet but don't know what I'm missing to connect it to the radio. Guessing I'm missing an adapter with a 3 prong plug with snaps. Anyone with an ower's manual that shows this?
