Hi Satelliters, Setting up a shack at the new QTH. Does anyone have measured loss figures for "N" type connectors in a cable run on 145 MHz and 437. I have seen 0.5dB per connector quoted but have no idea if this accurate, theoretical, or measured. 73 John G7HIA Hi John, G7HIA A good quality N connector has an insertion loss of 0.15 dB at 10 GHz .Look here ! http://www.amphenolrf.com/products/typen.asp?N=0&sid=4C58AD80EF3E17F& 73" de i8CVS Domenico _______________________________________________ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
