Anybody know what connector I need to connect RG-316 to the PL-259 or
go direct to the rigs SO-239? Any help will be appreciated by me and
another ham. We are using the RG-316 for mobile installation because
it's easy to snake thru small spaces.


Its also awful small diameter. I can't help but wonder what the losses
are for that.... gotta be worse than RG58, maybe?

If snaking coax in tight spaces is your concern, I'd at least look at
the Motorola white Teflon cable used a lot currently for commercial mobile
installations. It has the physical attributes of the RG316, but is a
little bit bigger, thus a bit lower loss. I don't recall the generic
type number, but a Google search should turn up something under Motorola
White Teflon coax. Connectors are more readily available for this than
what you have.

One hundred watts is the most power I'll be running. I will check out
the other Motorola cable you mention, thanks.
