I'm thinking to buy some used Heliax locally. I have a couple of offers, one is LDF4-50 which I am familiar with, the other is LDF1-50 which I am not. I have of course looked these up on the net and

Without using really sophisticated equipment, here's what I do. Check it with an multi meter for any shorts. It should of course read infinity. I then check it with my MFJ 259 to check the loss. It s

It's made by ANDREW. No S on the end. LDF1 is 1/4" in diameter. About the size of RG8X but much lower loss. You can use a standard PL-259 and modified UG176 (for RG-8X). Both have solid center conduc

Then why do you want Heliax? The primary advantage is lower loss. The only other one I can think of is robustness against rodents. I use LDF4-50 and LDF5-50 for 100m runs to my tower. LDF4-50 is very

I do not like the 1/2" heliax. I've found it too easy to kink and gave away most of what I had. I have one brand new N connector for the 1/2"left, but unfortunately some where in the last 20 years th

N-connectors are not much better than BNC and they don't stand up to much power! ;-) A better choice is C-connectors but they are a rare breed. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all! Bert, VE3N

Hi All, N connectors seem to get a bad rap for some reason. I have used them in my eme systems on 2m and 70cm for over 20 years and find them to be very reliable. There have been quite a few contests

Hi Bert, You might think so..however.... I have a remote 4 position rotary drum type antenna relay. It has all "N" connectors. I have used this unit for about 40 years and it was surplus when I obtai

I agree Gerald, N connectors have been in use for years around my shack and tower with no issues. The only problem with 7/16 is the availability and price of them for RG-8 or other flexible cable. N

My standard RF connector is UHF, and I adapt everything else to it. I've been able to buy Amphenol adapters with a male N and female UHF, but have not found Amphenol adapters with female N and male U

Hi Jim, you likely already make your own. It will be hard to beat a DIY adapter made with a short length of RG213 or LMR400 and N female one end/ UHF male other end. You will need to upgrade your sta

Call Davis RF, RF Parts, or the RF Connection. I know I'm missing several. Tell them what you want such as amphenol or "name brand" high quality connectors. You have to tell most distributors you wan
