The name dates from the '30s or early '40s. No question that there's a small discontinuity due to the Zo of the connector, but it certainly doesn't matter below 50 MHz, and at higher frequencies is o

N, BNC and TNC always look a bit minimal for power at UHF, but there are ratings for them. A rarer alternative with bigger centre pins is the Type C. However, measurements I have done on multiple ser

It depends on the quality of the UHF series connectors as to how much loss.  A number of years ago, I had a client who decided to set up his own two-way radio test bench.  For some reason, he used PL
