I have never seen Amphenol right angle UHF connectors, however I do have

them.


I'm not sure what you mean right angle connectors and then refer to the male/female right angle as adapters. The right angle connector is a male/female connector so what you call an adapter and right angle coupling are the same thing. The only couplings I've ever seen that were the same gender on both ends were straight. I have a couple, very old, silver plated ,right angle, UHF connectors. Imprinted is Amphenol Chicago on one side and the part # on the female end. Try as I might, I'm unable to read the part #, or even part of it. Perhaps with some fine emery cloth to polish the high spots and a magnifying glass I "might" be able to decipher them. I opened the desk drawer and there was one, right up front.

These are old. I'd have to guess they come from when I was in Breckenridge and I was there from 67 through 80. So they are a minimum of 33 years, but I'd guess it's more like 40 years old.
