That's another part of the kit, again for use with the 34-ft mast, when the mast is used on the vehicle roof.

The metal plug is the same diameter as the bottom 'F' rod, and plugs into the aerial base (No.8 or No.10), and the slotted lug connects to the screw terminal on the mast insulator.

The wire is about 7mm o.d. (as used to make the 7C lead) and looks like the Cable, Electric, P11 used for most of the British aerial leads (still in use today).

Best regards,
