I feel like this is the equivalent of taking a pair of alligator clips on the plug of the thing you want to plug in and hooking them to two paperclips and shoving them in the socket.
Here, I found where you can get 5 adapters for only $10.27

And maybe a visit to https://www.taydaelectronics.com/ to find switches and knobs and things. You can also harvest these from old, busted electronics you find here and there. Getting started is more of an art than a science - you start touching things to other things and see what happens. Good luck!
Clips!
It's on my Add-On wishlist!

Thanks for the contest!
also I think this setup is cheap enough to try. The Antenna as you can see is 7.20 and I got alligator clips set for 5.50 the price recently went up you might could get a comparable version for cheaper https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002KRABU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (this is what I got but their is others). So you are talking about 14 dollars if you need to get both. Don't waste your money on a cheap shortwave reel. Also the height in my case maybe making the big difference. I tried several setups like putting the wire over the roof but going through the tree and then the swing set really seemed to get good results. So you may need to play around with it and try to find something high like a nearby tree that has some height to it.
The Kaito T-1 antenna uses an optional clip adapter like the Sangean ANT-60. Neither sell the clip separately. Alligator clip test leads will also work.
Yes, I have been doing it for years now. You have to replace the pie pans every once in a while, but I started using rechargeable 6v batteries instead of lantern batteries and they work great.
