Dan, Are you making up jumpers in the literal sense, or do you actually need a bulkhead-mount UHF female on one end? If the latter, I suggest using a UHF female bulkhead connector that crimps right to the cable. That way, you can take full advantage of the shielding afforded by the RG-400/U cable, without the leakage of a hood. Ideally, the jumpers in a station cabinet should be point-to-point without any barrels, adapters, or couplings.
However, if you really must have the hood, they are available from Mouser. See Item "V" on this page: <www.mouser.com/catalog/630/954.pdf> 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2007 5:17 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Chassis mount so-239 with hood? Anyone know of a source for these darn things? I want to make up some jumpers. I have the RG-400 coax but I cant seem to find any so-239's with the metal hood over the back! Any ideas? Thanks for your time! Dan/NØFPE
