Would it be possible to use the F-connector in a transmitting situation? I
have never thought about it that way but considering how good the connector
actually is (I think it is better than the "old, trusted UHF"-connector) it
should be possible to use it instead of PL-239 for the slimmer cables. Any idea
what power it could take?
Just my penny,

I am wondering why F connectors are popular in amateur radio stations? Theyare
not waterproof, maybe partially if an o-ring is added. Basically asTerry noted
they are a cheap connector that has no center pin other the coaxwire. John
