Oak Hills Research sells a similar BNC bulkhead connector that fits in a
UHF hole.

http://www.ohr.com/parts.htm

BNC can handle roughly the same power as UHF. The max voltage on an
Amphenol UHF connector is 600V. The max for BNC is 500V. A Type N
connector can handle 1500V, so you can see how poor the UHF is for its
size.

The UHF connecor will handle more power than a type N,,, has negligable
loss through 450 Mhz
EZ to install and anyone that installs any connector outside and doesnt
tape and seal is asking for issues
used UHFs in a 432 array which was up for 10 years the connectors were as
bright N shiny
as when I out em up,,, when I took then down

An elecraft "approved" alternative is acceptable to me.
I don't mind retrofitting....i would get the kit form anyway so it's a snap.

But I would like it to be blessed by the design team.

You know, a blessing.
