BNC's can handle kilowatts of RF efficiently at reasonable SWRs. After all, the popular type N is simply a BNC with a screw-on outer shell.
Decent quality BNCs (e.g. Amphenol) are rated at 500 volts peak with a dielectric that will handle 1,500 V rms. That's 5 KW into 50 ohms, if my brain is working correctly, so they should handle the legal limit for US Hams into any reasonable SWR. Ron AC7AC -----Original Message----- Did I see BNC adapters?
