Hi Ted,

That's what I use (on small cables). I just ordered and received
another 50 of them. Ed always makes sure his connectors are
properly made.

After making up some phasing harnesses for a six meter system,
the only connector I hate profusely is the N connector that I need
to fit my M2 beams. I know many VHF people are a bit "retentive"
about connectors, but even on two meters a PL-259/SO-239 isn't
any problem! Curses to the people who insist on N connectors
below upper VHF.
