[amsat-bb] M2 keo pack coax connections

[W3AB/GEO]

In my little world where every little bit of loss is considered, and adapters get lost or fail, I'd go with the connectors you need installed as a prime on the cables. They are easy to install and should you experience a failure, you'd know how to repair/replace.
