In my emergency go kit I have adapters to convert the SMA-F on my FT-60 to:

  UHF-F
  BNC-F
  N-F
  and N-M

In addition the Little Tarheel antenna mount in the 4Runner which is a Diamond K400 has mini-UHF connectors.

Sometimes I think that some manufacturers invent a new connector type to lock their users in, or at least corner the market in adapters. I'm sure Apple does that and since Phil Parrish - W4AIN <www.myhamcables.com> could not find the 7 pin microphone connector used by my Yaesu FTM-10R or even order one from Yaesu, I think Yaesu does it as well.

I'm happy when I already have the adapters I need for a new piece of equipment.

Cheers - Bill, AE6JV

Practically all types of connectors can be (and have been) used for our amateur radio purposes with more than acceptable results.
