Re: [amsat-bb] Type N connectors question for the experts.

["Vince Fiscus, KB7ADL" <vlfiscus@xxxxxxx>]

Stan, you're the only one to give a thumbs down to the two piece type N 
connector so far. Everyone else likes them. But I don't know if they're 
better or worse yet.

The clamp on one have a little rubber ring to help with water proofing, I 
like that.  I use short runs of 8267 around the rotor because it's more 
flexible than 9913.
