Well if it's made for LCF78-50, that's the safest one to use. Other 
connectors might be usable if the center conductor pin is the right 
style and size.

I watched the video, it's a fairly typical install procedure. Most 
connectors come with an install sheet and the procedure will be 
straightforward.

One simple test that you should do after installing one of these 
connectors - try to twist the body of the connector on the cable. If you 
can twist it, you did something wrong and you should start over.
