Mathew, just get the cables from a GE base. It will most likely have an so239 on it and replace it. I would not worry about using the RCA plug. GE had them on mastrII's for years. I will look to see if I can scrounge a spare cable.

I either have to change the connector on the receiver so that the cable goes directly to the receiver without using any connetors to change from one type of plug to another, or find a special cable with an RCA on one end and a Type N Male on the other. My objective is to never visit the repeater site once this machine is done. And if I have to, I don't want it to be becuase I used a cheap connector to tie in the reciever. The receiver is the GE MASTR ER41. I'd rather just change the connector to a type N connector, but would have to widdle a little on the internal copper casing to put it in place. Question: If I install the type N connector, and there is a solder point behind the inside, am I going to run into troubles. I hate to cut into it to find that I'm opening a can or worms for noise to get in?
