Many of us use F connectors and 75 ohm CATV RG-6 coax for GPS antennas when both antenna and receiver are specified for 50 ohms.
Don't sweat the difference between 75 and 50 ohms. Tim N3QE On Fri, Jun 5, 2020 at 7:22 PM Robert DiRosario <[email protected]> wrote: > I have a Trimble ThunderBolt GPSDO that I just received.
