This looks like something from a commercial UHF antenna installation. You
did not specify the frequency of the VSWR measurement. I am guessing the
high VSWR is caused by very high impedance at measured frequency that is far
from resonance.

Subject: [TowerTalk] 1 5/8" hardline to N female?
I've been given an antenna that looks like it wants 1 5/8" hardline ...
here's a picture ... http://www.lf.org/milosz/temp/input.jpg
How do I connect this to something NORMAL like an N connector????
I've tried building things using pipe, tubing, connectors, copper plates
etc and the SWR is awful, like, 5:1.....
Thanks
