Actually there is an old ham radio trick that you can plug an N connector onto a BNC connector, it will just push on and the center pin and inner shield will make contact.

I was afraid of that.


I would connect a short pigtail to the connector on the pccard that
ends in a TNC.

TNC's are a pain to mate, though. Gotta have threads, do I?


Fasten the pigtail to the card really well and just
connect and disconnect from the TNC connector. It's a little bulky but
will at least last.

By "really well", do we mean "expoxt the entire pigtail including the TNC
jack to the case, like an ethernet lump"? :-)
