are the same as bnc - bnc audio leads (whether they make a lead for audio)
im not sure,

Similar, but not the same.
BNC isn't used for audio normally, just video and RF.
Video cable/connectors are rated at 75ohm, RF at 50ohm usually.
You can mix and match, but obviously not ideal.

i've been asked to try and repair what basically looks like a bnc lead, with a bnc plug on one end a pl259 (as pictured) on the other, as he works at sea, his wife can listen into his radio chatter, on her scanner, but obviously a short stubby aerial is no good, she he's got a 4-5foot, aerial on the side of his house, and the cables been bodged to get it working, but has failed, so i was thinking bout using the two following components to get it to work,

& to connect using this:

hey presto one lead, then heatshrink the joints to make water tight.

You want some proper coax, If you are connecting upto say a linear aerial, Maybe look at RG213, Is nice and thick so low loss, Wouldnt advise what your planning, A PL plug wont hold very tight on wafer thing coax
