[TowerTalk] UHF (PL259) soldered center with braid crimp or crimp-crimp, supply?

[Jeff Blaine]

The price of a connector varies with the value you put on replacing a 
failed one.  If that happens up at 100+ feet, then an extra buck for a 
good connector is a pretty good investment.  If your connector is in a 
tree at 20', then sure, it's not worth the extra.
