Shark Radio 800w type of connector
I'm trying to find the name of the Shark radio cable extension connector. I've never seen soooo many connectors on a google search. The radio input connector is smaller than normal coax. I would like to extend the antenna to the saddle bag area with the Shark radio in the frunk. 6' coax or maybe even 3' coax as a coax extention cable with possible adaptor if needed. I had ordered a Velocity 6' F type Mini-coax interconnect with an adaptor to join the two (2) cables together but the connector ends are too big. The Shark radio input connector's outside diameter is 6.23 mm with the micrometer in between the threads. Approx 6.56 mm on the outside of the threads.
Help me Please,
Darrell

Nope---not in their product line--I wrote them twice with 2 different approaches--none--plus I just want to find the name of the connectors---I must be the only one who keeps their radio in the frunk & wants the antenna on the rear. Engine static prevents a good signal. If I hold the antenna 2 feet to the side of the spyder it works great.. I'm referring to FM reception--it works great from a usb memory module.

Do you have their antenna that connects to the radio? If so see if you can unsolder the cable from the antenna and splice in a coax. Another option is cut the existing cable and splice in an extension using available connectors. If you're using some other antenna it might be worth buying their antenna for $14 and using its cable to splice into whatever you're using.
