You want to steer away from junk connectors, and there are a lot of them out

usually cheap overseas junk.

Stick with Amphenol or a another good mil-spec brand

a couple of manufacturers that I will purchase
or that we will purchase in the shop. AMPHENOL silver plated/teflon being

Better matching, less loss, handle power, robust and perfect for RG-214.
---Better matching? Both N and BNC are constant
impedance. Power? Not a concern for receivers.
RG-214? BNCs work quite nicely with it.
