I think the biggest problem that we face is that our adaptors tend to not have a pedigree. I have some that I know were from Radio Shack, some that I bought at hamfests in boxes of "stuff", some with real pedigrees (amphenol, in the bag) and some that are precision test equipment in their own right.
If cost were no object, we would do the whole thing in hardline and GPC-7 connectors and be done with it, right? :) Someone mentioned before, an elbow or tee that used a SPRING to make the connection.. Boy, I would love to put that on my SA and see the plot! Probably works nicely at some frequencies, and insanely badly at others. I ended up having to put at least one right angle in every radio connection. The daniels gear uses front panel N connnectors, and there's no way I could close the cabinet door without RA connectors. I couldn't find anything RA in N, so I used a single RA adaptor on each of the four lines. Not sure who makes them. Markings are "CQA" or "CGA" and "UG-27/U" Definitely silver plated. Yahoo!
