The RCA connector has been demonstrated to show a flat response from DC
to Light. The only problem with this connector is that it is hard solder
coax to the blasted thing.

Can you direct me to the data that verifies this?

i just tried to shine a laser through one and the wire got in the way...
100% loss i would say.

Specify the operating frequency range. Up to 100 MHz, not a problem. At 10
GHz I'd worry about it.

I need to make some field antenna cables and connectors using RG-174/U
cable. If for for reasons of convenience and cost I use metal RCA
connectors, with there be a material difference in insertion loss?
