Suggestions?
I'm looking for an antenna connector with the following
idea: I want to mount a spare 2m/440 mobile antenna on my race bike and use my FT-51R ht on my belt with the deluxe remote mic on the handlebars. Problem is that if I wreck, the radio will want to stay on my belt but the coax going to the antenna won't! The mic connector will pull out but the antenna connector (BNC) will stay until something breaks. If I wreck, I may need my HT to call for assistance (it's happened once before) I need an inepensive 50 ohm pair of connectors that will slide apart when pulled. Kinda like a push on F fitting but for 50 ohm RG-58 cable. The only ones I've thought of are the F fitting or an RCA connection. Anybody know the impedance of an RCA plug? Are there push on BNC or 259 connectors? Cost matters. -- Just my 2¢... 73 es gd dx de Ken KGØWX Grid EM17ip, Flying Pigs #-1055 Proud builder & owner of Elecraft K2 #4913 |
