Topband: interconnecting cables

[Art Snapper <art@nk8x.net>]

I am curious about terminating RG-6 cable connections in the ham shack.

I have been using several types of adapters, i.e. F female to BNC male,  F
female to UHF male, or F female to RCA.

I have not been overly impressed with these adapters from either an
electrical or mechanical viewpoint.

Is there a preferred method for termination, like soldering a PL-259 on
RG-6?

I like using the F connectors on the receive side, to prevent damage caused
by user error.
