Yup, I've used one of these solderless connectors to put a BNC connector
onto the end of the cable of an old school magnet mount cell phone antenna.
Since the 800MHz police/fire stuff that I listen to is pretty close to the
cell phone band, I figured it would work a bit better than the stock rubber
duck (and it does seem to help reception in the car). I've been happy with
the solderless connection. It was a simple install.

Radio shack has some solderless bnc connectors for rg59 cable they are
easy to install and seem to work fine
