[Amps] Right Angle UHF Connector

[Jim W7RY]

Agreed Bill!

But.... RG 142 or RG-400 is the same size of RG58 but has Teflon 
insulation.Easy to bend around the corners. I use it inside of my home-brew 
HF amplifiers for the output line for 1500 watts on RTTY. (So does Alpha and 
so does Paul, WD7S in all his amplifiers. Check out his web site). If Alpha 
used it, then it must be OK! Wink wink!   :)

Much better than using adapters!
