That's exactly what I've been doing for some years now. I buy the cable
already terminated with F connectors, and add BNC, PL259, or N adapters
as required.
Not the most efficient as far as minimizing losses is concerned, but
terminating cable is not something I enjoy.
I don't know how this would work with hi power. I operate with less than
100W always.

I think the best method is F connector, snap and seal, if you must have
a 259 use an adapter.

hi guys,
planning on installing some more beverages. i have a roll of CATV 75
ohm cable. it is the kind with a double shield. aluminum wrap over
tinned copper shield. there is some kind of sticky on the shield and i
dont think that i can solder efficiently to it.
what is the best way to clean the "sticky" off the shield so that i
can solder to it for PL259's?
thanks,
larry
