Hi folks,

I just bought a batch of Amphenol PL-259 83-1SPs to assemble some
jumpers. When did Amphenol shift from 'Made In USA' to 'Assembled In
Mexico'? The whole reason for buying Amphenol was to:

A) Enjoy that Amphenol quality. (BTW, they don't even look the same.
The dielectric has a cheap milky recycled look and the name and model
nr. are no longer stamped into the sleeve ring.)

B) Support products 'Made In USA'.

Ok, this was my two minute rant. Tnx fer listening.

Ain't nuttin sacred anymore, Brother!

I expect at least one of my grandkids to be "Assembled (by a)
Mexi(can)" based on dating habits of the middle daughter. Oh well...
