[TowerTalk] Crimp on Type N

[Steve Katz]

There are different size pin type N crimp connectors available.
Bury-Flex, like LMR400 and 9913 etc. has an oversized center conductor
that takes a pin with a larger opening.

If you look here and scroll down to item #11101400, that one works fine
for this:  http://therfc.com/n.htm

Are you sure they don't make different versions of the connector for 
cables with different center conductors? I recently used a bunch of 
clamp-type N-connectors (bought on ebay) on Bury-Flex and the center 
pins fitted perfectly. But I later bought a couple more at a hamfest and

had to cut off some strands.
