Need a new adaptor for my Nagoya UT-72G

[WRTB501]

Hello, as title says i need a new one because mine detached from the one end and i dont think its working correctly anymore, wondering if anyone has any input to if this one will work (SMA Female to UHF Female (SO239) 18 inch Pigtail Cable (RG58)) for connecting it to my UT-72G to my Wouxun KG-935g.

Thxs for any replies in advance!

I tried ordering that one twice...lost in transit both times

I ended up going with this one instead (since my primary use needed a sma-m)., and grabbed a sma-f to sma-f adapter from signalstuff when ordering another antenna:

Here is one I found as a related item, that has the sma-f end already, and mpd digital tends to be solid stuff, afaik:

Unfortunately, out-of-stock at HRO https://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-011319

SMA-F /cables/ tend to be rare (as are SO-239 cables), but I can understand not wanting to put a large SMA-SO239 https://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-010218 adapter directly on the radio.

https://www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-007327 is SMA-M, and rather long. An SMA gender changer/coupler isn't too much mass. https://www.amazon.com/Nisaea-Antenna-Connector-Female-Adapter/dp/B07FRGZVL9/ref=sr_1_13?crid=3OUXOOEDIJCI5&keywords=sma+adapter&qid=1660755809&s=electronics&sprefix=sma+adapter%2Celectronics%2C118&sr=1-13 (also has M-M gender changers). If you are doing much connect/disconnect work, even https://www.amazon.com/Nisaea-Connector-Female-Adapter-Cable/dp/B07FW13YYT/ref=sr_1_19?crid=3OUXOOEDIJCI5&keywords=sma+adapter&qid=1660756023&s=electronics&sprefix=sma+adapter%2Celectronics%2C118&sr=1-19 might be recommended -- SMA is only rated for a mere 500 connect/disconnect cycles, so keeping this on the radio would help save the radio SMA from wear.
