     If I recall, I used to fold the braid back over the black outer
     covering and screw on the PL-259. Worked quite well in most
     applications. As far as impedance continuity, I would be more
     concerned about the PL-259, it's not even close to a 50 ohm
     connector, BUT, at HF frequencies, the bump in the line will
     never get noticed, if indeed there is a bump. Something
     about the 1/10 wavelength rule ??
