Mark,
For RG-400, I've been using crimp PL-259s from RF Industries and purchased
through Tessco and RF Parts:

Subject: [TowerTalk] PL 259 crimp connectors for RG 400
Hi does anyone have any recent experience buying generic PL 259 style crimp
connectors for RG 400 style cable and if so could they share their vendor
contract info with me ?
My last few batches of generic connectors have had centre pins which are to
small for the RG 400 centre conductor. I would prefer a generic connector
for this application vs a pricey name brand one. I'm making up some patch
cords for portable work and they may only last a for a few outings.
I'm using generic RG400 cable which may also be part of the issue. The
cable and connectors were sourced from the same vendor.
Plan B is to simply drill out the centre pins of the connectors that I have.
I already have the RG 400 sized ferrules.
Thanks in advance
