I assume by UHF you're talking about the female version of PL-259
(SO-239)? That will put the weight of a PL-259 connector plus the adapter on the BNC panel jack on the rig. I had though it would be better to hook up a piece of coax with just the BNC connector to reduce the weight on the rig. - Keith - -----Original Message----- Keith, I simply use a BNC to UHF female adapter....works slick! 73 Tony, W4FOA _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [hidden email] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Keith: At RS you can get a short length of RG58 with BNC connectors
on both ends. Then you can do one of two things. a) get a BNC-female/PL-259 adapter (278-121) attached to an inline SO-239 coupler (278-1369) or b) get an inline BNC-female coupler (278-115) attached to a BNC/ SO-239 adapter (278-120) Either way you end up with a cable with a BNC connector at one end and an SO-239 on the other. best wishes, dave belsley, w1euy On Jan 20, 2006, at 3:28 PM, Darwin, Keith wrote: > I assume by UHF you're talking about the female version of PL-259 > (SO-239)?

Keith,
Even easier and using quality product, Tom at [hidden email] will make you any length of any coax and any connector to your specifications. He usually ships next day. He's great. Send him an email with what you want and have him quote it.
