[amsat-bb] M2 keo pack coax connections

[R.T.Liddy]

Bob,

As others have replied, avoiding adapters is the best
advice. This is especially true in outside weather
and wherever the connection is subject to movement
or vibration. Personally, I've used a few in the shack
on permanently mounted equipment for decades without
a problem as an expedient or cheapness/laziness.

GL/73,     Bob  K8BL

As I understand it, both the vhf and uhf antennas use N connectors, is that correct?My ic-910h uses a pl 259 type connector  for the vhf side.Im ordering coax...should I order N connectors, then simply use an adapter (pl259 type to N) on the radio end of the vhf coax?BibWa7dxz
