Thanks John. Yes, I'd thought of that, and before posting, had ordered a 
couple of RF Industries UHF Males for Andrew or Cablewave 1/2-in line. 
They arrived today, and look good. I'm going to put one of them on a new 
line that I've temporarily used an expensive adapter terminate at my 
lightning panel. It does, indeed, look like a decent connector. Are the 
Andrew/Commscope connectors any better?  I'd not realized that they existed.
