Tony!!
I have found them on eBay, in quantities for $5 -free shipping. I have not
had any problems with them.
For outdoor use I coat them with No-Ox-ID, made by SanChem. Another way to
protect the connections, use self-sealing heat shrink tubing.

Hi Kelly,
With the F connector it is easier to pull the cable through the conduit, if
I need to. But that is about it.

Hi Tony,
I'd suggest you're best off going with Plan B.
While I'm not a connector conspiracy theorist saying every adapter is evil,
if you don't need an adapter, what's the upside of using one?
