Just wanting some input ... I have used cable TV hardline for years with most
of the transitions being inside a plastic box with the center conductor
soldered to a SO239 mounted on the box and the shield being jumpered by braid.
Recently on some receive system fed with hardline I have used the brass 1/2
transistions to joint the coax and a PL259 using NoOx. It makes a nice neat
transistion. The price is about the same to do either. I am planning some
large changes and leaning toward the brass transitions. Any comments on
experiences with both. 73 Mike K4PI
