[TowerTalk] N connector, Re: UHF (PL259) soldered center

[Grant Saviers]

Some of us have "been there, been bitten" by the terrible water 
migration in the first gen Belden 9913 with air dielectric.  Trilogy 
claims "no water migration" with their air dielectric outdoor version 
and offer a 15 year warranty so perhaps...

Trilogy 7/8" specs seem very close to AVA5-50 except for bending 
moment.  Almost 2:1 Aircell vs AVA5.  Not surprising with the solid Al 
shield.  So it will be less installer friendly, especially in conduit.  
Flat plate crush favors Aircell by 1.75x so that is nice for those going 
the direct burial route.

Is any pricing data available?
