BNC's leak if using el-cheapo connectors... Most receiver multicouplers use BNC connectors...

For the duplexers with N connectors, we simply put a male BNC on the radio side and a male N on the duplexer side of the cable. 73s, AJ, K6LOR On Wed, Jan 21, 2009 at 10:21 AM, Chuck Kelsey <wb2...@roadrunner.com>wrote: > You want to steer away from junk connectors, and there are a lot of them > out > there.
