Sealing coax connectors. | RadioReference.com Forums
2020年11月22日 — Am connecting a coax male BNC connector to the bottom of the magnetic loop box which is a W6LVP Magnetic Loop. Do I start winding the electrical tape immediately from the BNC connector and move on down the coax for about 3 inches or so OR, start winding the electrical tape from the bottom of coax and on up to the BNC connector? Any help ...

What wattage soldering iron for PL-259 connectors?
2022年4月20日 — The connectors will sweep fine past 6GHz when complete and a child can install perfect connectors every time. These connectors run about $14 each on Amazon but can be found cheap, sometimes in bulk surplus for $6 each on eBay. I also find them cheap at ham swapmeets and at the last one I got a bag of 22 new EZ connectors for LMR240 for $2 each.

2012年4月30日 — The best solution I've found is what most commercial sites use, All connectors are type N or 7/16 DIN that have proper sealing built into the design. All connectors have adhesive lined heat shrink used over the coax and the connector body. Once the connectors are mated, a pass of electrical tape is added, either adhesive down or adhesive up.
How to test coax end-to-end? - RadioReference.com Forums
2024年2月23日 — I've used a NanoVNA to test coax before. SWR sweep the antenna to ensure the expected results. Scan the coax terminated into a dummy load; Scan the coax open. Using these tests on an antenna with degraded performance, I was able to determine the coax had gone "bad" from water ingress.
coax connectors: soldered vs. crimped? - RadioReference.com …
2013年2月27日 — While the coax is soldered to the connector, the connector mating for the center conductor uses pressure to make contact, especially in the UHF type connectors that most hams use. I remember working in video in my earlier years, we had some monitors that used the UHF type connectors for baseband video.
Using F-Connectors with 50 Ohm RG8 - RadioReference.com Forums
2024年1月19日 — I know CATV coax (typical RG6/x) is 75ohm, but I will be using 50ohm RG8/x. Only the connectors for the Thru-Wall Setup would be the CATV type. Knowing that every "connector/adaptor/jumper" inserted in a TX/RX line acts as a BalUn to some degree, I am curious as to what effects using F-Connectors would have in 50ohm TX/RX performance.
What Is The Best Coax For A GMRS Base Station?
2020年8月16日 — The first approximately 20 feet of coax will be what was provided by Midland with the MXTA25 3dB Gain Antenna. I estimate I will need approximately another 20 to 25 feet of coax to run from the provided coax on the tower, into the attic, and then down into the room where the base station will be set up with the 12 Amp power unit I've purchased ...
Losses in Coax Fittings? - RadioReference.com Forums
2012年2月16日 — On another note, some of the chinese makers are using very poor quality alloys or just plain badly made connectors that "leak" much worse than average. Stick with a decent brand and be careful of bargain connectors. If price is most important there are some nice ones made in Taiwan that are not expensive.
