I am not sure what old style connectors are.  N connectors for LDF6 are
pretty inexpensive in the surplus market. The tower pros likely have a
number of these laying around if you happen know anyone in the business.
They are also frequently on eBay. I have purchased new one piece ones for
around $10 so I personally would not mess around home brewing.

If you are just using it for HF, guys have been rolling their own  for a
couple of bucks for years.  Many different ways to accomplish  this.  I used
copper "flares" normally used for plumbing and just  waterproofed them after
fabrication.  Easy and cheap.

All,

I am still looking for a couple 1-1/4" Heliax old style  connectors.
Appreciate all the leads since yesterday - nothing panned out  yet.

The feedline is older LDF6-50A.  I am told the connectors may  be
Silver (not brass) shell.

Possibly part number  L46PN.

Looking for two female or male Ns for this cable...  Advise  price and
condition.

Thanks in advance,
