Some of the cheap imports may be metric thread.

Regarding N or UHF,  I've switched to good quality crimp fittings eons ago,
and if one buys the proper prep and a quality crimp  tool they are very
reliable.

Topband: Pasternack PL259

[James Lee]

The Pasternack offerings are pretty expensive, especially given that no silver 
is present!  They are listed at about 11 bucks each unless I misread the data; 
I will try a couple of them with RG213.

Sad to hear ths rumour that there may be a threading problem when using these 
and attaching to amps or rigs?
