Thanks, I had no way of knowing that. Tells me the connectors are good parts. The 4 Heliax connectors I bought with the cable are Andrew connectors. I'm wondering when the Andrew web site will be back up. Is it based in taiwan? I know they had problems there due to a major quake that shut many things down. I have a fairly good assortment on other N connectors, various brands that don't give me a real clue as to what cables they were actually made for use with. Some I can usually simply use with whatever size cable jacket fits through the gland nut... I should post a few part nubers and brands later.

The cable says RG214/U.
