I think the "UHF" connectors are great, appropriate technology for 1-2 KW HF
applications, as long as you waterproof them.  Properly installed, there's
nothing junky about them.  Actually, in my experience the most important factor
(after installation and coax seal), is that the so-239 be of high quality to
insure good contact to the center pin.
