[TowerTalk] Old coax connectors . . .

[Steve]

I have several PL-259 and SO-239 connectors that I acquired in the 
1970's. Also a number of male-male barrels, female-female barrels and 
90-degree male-female connectors.

Do these type of connectors deteriorate with the passing of the years? 
Their finish has been dulled, but they are in good mechanical condition. 
They have been kept dry during storage, although exposed to the summer 
and winter time temperatures of an unheated/uncooled building.

Thanks.

Steve
