I'm new and have acquired a ftv250 transverter for my ft101 ee. I did get the 11 pin connector but don't know how to make the coax antenna to 250 connection as well as rf out to 250 connect. Can anyone guide me? Mike kf5slp

You'll find the manual on this page  http://www.foxtango.org/ft-library/FT-Library/FT101/FT101.htm
Along with other items of possible interest.

I have the manual and understand where the connections are, but don't know how to go from the coax type connection on radio to RCA type connection on the 250 and what type of wire to use on rf out( radio) to tx in on 250. Mike

Looking at the book, top of page 7, looks like you'll need two lengths of 50 Ohm coax like RG-50 or RG-8X. One with an RCA phono on each end, the other with an RCA on one end and a PL-259 on the other. Length isn't critical. 6-10 feet should get you where you need to go.
