Is it worth paying a high price for sa supposed quality plg or can
equally used the much cheaper ones?

Been QRT for over 25 years and should be on the air in a few weeks
with a FlexRadio 6300


Be warned that there are both metric and imperial versions of the
PL259/SO239
combinations.

I fell over this incompatibility a few years ago when buying a second-hand
2m colinear, despite that I had been using them for 20 years previously.
