Default Adding PL-259 connector



Unrevealed Source wrote:
I often see radios that someone has added the connector. I'd like to add
one to an old DX-150A, just for convenience since my longwire comes into the
house via coax. A already use a MLB between the longwire outside and the
coax; the antenna works great on radios with a 50ohm input.

Any advice? Thanks.


Ferrite is cheap. Why not put a 3:1 (turns) balun inside the
radio between the SO-239 connector and the original antenna
terminal.
