[Amps] Amphenol Connectors made in China

    Just started installing some Amphenol BNC panel mount connectors and 
found them to be very substandard to the products I am accustomed to 
getting.  I started spinning no the nut by hand and the nut was so loose 
that it actually skipped a thread and began cross threading. This was 
finger torque only. In fact, it is difficult to keep them from cross 
threading.
     Got a second sealed package and the same problem. Flipped the package 
over and there it was, Made in China.
