- Why the F wont it go on ? I have probably installed over 150 F connectors to RG-6 in the field for my Beverages and other RX antennas. Im sure many on this list have done the same, but tonight I uplo

- One thing I did not mention in my video is that not all RG-6 is not the same. (obviously) Beside quad shield vs single shield, and flooded vs not, the jacket design can really effect things. I have u

- When you find a cable that you like, stick with it! Before falling in love with a cable, it is worthwhile to check its impedance accuracy vs frequency and its low frequency loss and the consistency
