The drawing seems correct but the photograph shows the variant with a 
slimmer body for RG58.

I will add one to the Farnell order planned for Monday (can always use 
another '259) so will confirm for sure by Tuesday.

The RG58 variant is here:  <http://tinyurl.com/4vby36o>  and the 
photograph is correct. The drawing recommends that the braid is fanned 
out, maybe to improve the anchoring of this thinner cable) but I haven't 
found it to be at all critical. - the cable is very firmly clamped.

Whatever you need will be over here with Farnell; whatever we need will 
be over there with Newark. There's a law at work here... and we know 
exactly whose.
