I will second that recommendation. I took a series of pictures of my new rig, sent them to Stephen, and he came up with a recommendation which is a perfect fit for the DJ-G7. It may not be on that list, but he will know which one you need. It will even handle the Pryme AL-800 antenna. Probably the best made component on my rig. ;) He runs a small operation, but is a real craftsman.

... my arrow antenna's BNC connector doesn't plug directly to the DJ-G7's

I hope you didn't order the Yaesu CN-3 adapter. It should be taken off the market. It provides absolutely no protection/strain relief to your new HT's SMA connector when in use.
Stephen Gulyas makes "intelligent" BNC-toSMA adapters ... which have a hard rubber gasket that "mates" to the top of a radio. VERY protective from the stress and strain we place on our radios when changing out antennas.
Scroll down half of this page to download a copy of what Stephen offers ...

Enjoy what Santa brought you!
