Re: Elecraft Digest, Vol 37, Issue 15 - K3 N type

That was 1 of my first questions to Wayne, his reply:

    We'll be supplying only SO239s, but you could replace them with N-type
    yourself, assuming they'd fit. It's a tight squeeze with the ATU
    installed.

Myself I use high-quality pressure-connection PL259's (about $6 a pop),
these are fine. Maybe another little extra Elecraft could offer, some PL259
are wretchedly bad.

Just found a picture of some decent PL259
http://www.diodecomms.co.uk/images/UHFAIR7.jpg which are lots better than
http://www.maeselectronics.be/images/plug/PL259_7.jpg IMHO.
