[AMPS] need Millen HV connector

[Phil Clements]

Millen is alive and well in Mass.
I order all my connectors direct.
To ad to Rich's statement, the yellow connectors are
less working voltage than are the red and black because
they are made of different material.

Rich has good intentions when recommending vendors,
but many of them are not set up for ham use in small
quantities. The Millen connectors are fine and inexpensive
if a few precautions are taken.


I use them exclusively here with great success.
If I have a situation where the voltage will exceed
2000 volts, I drill an over-sized hole in the chassis and use
a plexiglass or Teflon sheet between the chassis and the connector.
Works good...lasts a long time!
