I believe I saw, once, a type N-Male connector for RG-214 that had two
separate clamping sections, one for each layer of braid. I'd have to go
look to see if I have it somewhere. I don't recall if it was installed on a
cable or an unused connector.

I beleive the connectors used on Rg214 are different part numbers and are
more difficult to install correctly.Chuck K9LC

RG-214 cable would be significant overkill.Absolutely correct...and far
more costly.Ken W7EKB_______________________________________________RFI
