Can anyone tell me why the major supply houses (Digi-Key, Mouser or Amphenol) don't supply anything other than crimped Type N connectors? It seems to me as if crimped connectors have become the stand

Almost no one except amateur radio and CB uses UHF (PL259) connectors anymore. Therefore you will mostly find them in ham and CB shops (and ebay). 73, Ryan, N2RJ -- Ryan A. Jairam, __________________

Wow. So I should return all these commercial two way radios I deal with that have SO-239 connectors on them for use with PL-259's to the manufacturers as being defective? Icom, Kenwood, etc use them

I thought I saw some crimped UHF connectors on the Mouser website this morning. I think I did a search for Connectors - RF - crimped - male - UHF to get to the list of male, crimped, UHF connectors.

I disagree with that statement! Just look at the frequency range usage specification for various types of connectors. Anything beyond that can be covered under the word 'marketing'! Except on high qu

The inference here is that UHF connectors are somehow outmoded. Nothing could be further from the truth. The FACT is that they are entirely satisfactory for systems operating below about 500 MHz, an

Sure! Connectors are relatively inexpensive. But before you buy them, look at the price of EACH set of crimping tools! Just about exceeds the price of a good solder station! Tom - W4BQF I thought I s

Well, I'm not going to get into this religious argument again. I don't doubt that it's still being used outside of ham and CB. There are still people who use cassette tapes and LP records, and they a

Not sure where I bought them, but I have a number of UHF types that are crimp on for both RG8 and RG8X sizes. No problems fitting LMR-400, BUT LMR400UF center conductor is larger by a tad. I also hav

If you only have a couple of runs then it can be problematic. OTOH I have 5 runs from the shop and house to a relay box at the base of the tower and 5 runs to the top of the tower. Counting pigtails

I'd go for using SMA, etc. at microwave frequencies. And I'd much prefer a crimp connector over a solder on connector as well (and so do people who worry about reliability, etc.). Solder SMA on semir

I think, though, that the commercially viable application space for UHF connectors is somewhat restricted. I doubt you're going to see a huge commercial market for things like 100 foot premade cables
