Hi folks,
Thank you for the plethora of emails you sent me.
I got a little scared the prices I've seen for those connectors, ebay and
around.
I have tried SO-239 connectors once, good quality, and they arced as I moved
near or above 3kv, thats why I am scared about millen. I also dont feel very
comfortable having HV On a BNC-like connector, as shit happens, specially on
late night shifts at contest operations... hihi
I have a source for amphenol mil connectors, and I can get a pair of them for
around $40, fob. Using them I would be able to carry more stuff between rf deck
and ps (scree, acc voltages, control lines, etc) via a cable harness.
Here is a pic of the socket for the connector I want to use:

The most down pin carries HV, and it has some room around it. At least this is
how harris did with the RF110, but... RF110 ps is around 2.2kv
Unless someone shout me to stop, I will go on and use this for circa 3kv on my
project.
73 and thank you for your replies,
