The mantra is "only buy Amphenol UHF"  BUT when you find the qty 10 
price of the 083-1AP UHF 90 at Mouser is $18ea, perhaps an alternative 
might be ok !!

I've used DavesRF 90's ok at 2:1 swr QRO without problems, on all of the 
connectors (6 out 2 in) on my SPE Expert 2K, $6.25ea qty 10 see

These actions tie up courts and the supporting staff that we support through taxes, wasting some pretty expensive resources better spent on issues more important, like dealing with crime (as an example).

I want to use an old 6 position RatPak switchbox I have (SO-239 connectors), but the depth of the unit for the Carlon wx box I want to mount it in would require a pretty severe bend in the cables coming up from the bottom. So, I thought of the right angle connectors. I was unable to find any negative issues with my cursory look around the resources I have or a quick look on the internet. Has probably come up as a topic someplace. Thoughts?
