I need one or two of these for one of my German radio antanae sockets. Do any of you have any spares or know where I can get some please?
I should be more specific it's for the ribbon cable and has two prongs.

Just for the information of others, there were two differing plug types. One had smaller diameter pins, and I seem to remember they were spaced wider apart than the plug with the larger diameter pins.

I remember that some of the large pin plugs used insulation displacement connections. The feeder cable was slotted into position and the pins screwed into the feeder piercing the insulation and making the electrical contact.
