I broke one of the connectors on my hf plus antenna harness. Is there anyway to save it? I went to radio shack but they didn't have any of those small terminals. Any ideas on how to fix this other than buying another harness? It is off a Dei Hornet 570t.

On those metal connectors there are little tabs that are bendable, bend them upwards so they reseat when you plug it back in.

The red wire actually broke off. I want to put a new female connector on it but can't find any small enough online. Newbie questionposted_image ...would soldering it directly to the male terminal at the module work?

Yep I have to buy them at 100 off and then use about 10, if you were local I'd have given you some.
