in serviceable condition.

Greetings. My partner and I are looking for a couple of connectors for our
club's repeater. We need to double-check the heliax but we think it's Andrew
1 5/8 AIR coax, so here's the part numbers he gave me:
PN: 2216A
DESC: Adapter, N-Female to 1-5/8 EIA 50 Ohm
PN: H7PNF (Old number 87PN)
Hi Bruce,
Both really...
I've seen demos of both... My first clue was a Watt Meter on
an 800 MHz Micor Repeater circa 1980's. The meter was reading
kind of crazy with a right-angle N used because of restricted
space.

I have told this one several times before, but one night we were servicing a
250 watt Glenayere 900 Mhz paging station and all we had was UHF connectors
on the Bird 43. Bubba grabbed a hand full of adaptors and lashed the thing
up. Shortly after keying up smoke started coming out of the
There are cases to be made for both solder and crimp connections.
But also keep in mind how some really smart people say one or the
other method is not good news.
In general the industry doesn't like solid wire or soldered
connections in mobile radio (moving) applications. Vibration can

Quintron's still around, they're just called Glenayre now. They just

I'm going to be making up some jumpers for test leads and repeater
interconnects with RG-400 using BNC and N connectors. I'm wondering what
folks have had best results with: crimp style or clamp style connectors.
What is more appropriate for this type of cable? Is one style more reliable

Hello All,
I would NEVER use crimp for any thing to do with duplex. Like a repeater,
They will work OK (crimp) for test cables and the crimp connector is
easier
to install but you can not beat a good solder

I dissagree...crimp on connnectors (of course you solder the center pin)
are
probably the best and most replicable connections made. We did a lot of
