Thanks!

The feeder assembly comes in several parts:

Plates, Adapter, No.2 - this fits on the back of the variometer and has a knurled nut for clamping the aerial feeder.

The aerial feeder - 39" of insulated wire with a ring terminal at each end.

and

Plates, Connector, No.1 - a circular metal plate with 6 holes to match the aerial base No.8 (or 10) and a central feed-through insulator that takes the aerial feeder from below and a pigtail lead above (which connects to the aerial base.

You can probably find both plates fairly easily, but may have to make your own 39" connecting lead to go between them.

(The "Plates, Adapter, No.2" was standard with the "Truck & Ground Station" kit, and the "Plates, Connector, No.1" was widely used, not just with the WS19 - there are various different styles of this plate.)
