Or -- I have several BNC male to SMA male adapters that I dont consider to
be precious. I'm in the Los Angeles area. Digi-Key seems to have alot of
coax connectors, and adaptors

Use RG-174. Finding an inexpensive SMA connector for RG-58 is difficult.

shared these priceless pearls of wisdom:

-Hello, I am going to be making some adaptor harnesses for my HT, they

are
-going to have a PL-259 on one end and a SMA male end on the other, my
-question is are the center conductor's inside the RG-58 and RG-174 the

same
-diameter because I see all the jumper harness's that are available
-commercially made of RG-174, but when I see DIY pages they are made of
-RG-58, and I just want to make sure. I read that RG-58 has alot less

loss
-and is cheaper. Thanks
