Yes, that's probably it. Don't forget you need to order the inserts too. That coax insert is going to set you back $25-35 depending on what kind of coax and whether you need M or F. (and yow, pray you aren't using RG-142). AND, I haven't looked to see whether the coax insert can be assembled without the fancy tool and dies. Might be worth finding a company that does cables and having them make it for you? They'll have the tooling. One wonders about a $100 connector on a $100 surplus Rb, too... Maybe soldering wires to the pins of the connector might be a more "quick and dirty surplus" approach. (Says the man who has more than once got a "great deal" on some piece of gear and then spent 3 times as much to try and hook it up, because it uses some funky connector that was cheap in comparison to the original $10,000 cost, but is pretty high compared to the $50 surplus I paid) Jim _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
