A PL-259 should have a 5/32" (4mm) pin. John KK9A

The patch cable used until recently had one of them on one end. It had spread the leaves on the ANT1 SO259 just enough that a good connector, when perfectly centered and seated, did not make contact! Gentle recentering of the leaves with a miniature flat blade screw drive yielded relief and a self-administered head smack.
