I never tried to make one with connectors already on.  If there is a 
connector, I just cut it off as for 160-40 takes enough turns that 
connectors would limit me, or I wind one with a piece of coax long 
enough to make the required turnd, add connectors, ans just insert it 
into the run.  OTOH,  I am making some with RG-400
