The radio end will be a PL259 but I'm not sure what you'll need for the antenna end as that depended on the antenna.
Mine has PL259's on both ends and I did the joint for the mast below the deck with male and female N connectors because they maintain the 50 ohm impedance of the cable throughout the joint. It's not a big difference but I'm fussy.

Here's a link to the PL259. ML&S are a good company, I'm sure your shipping wont be much. Mine was under a tenner with 30m of cable and a bunch of connectors delivered next day.
