Take a look at this item, the connectors in particular. There seems to
be a difference in the style of "N" connectors anymore. What i'm
curious about is whether they are really the type that are fully
compatible with what we normally accept as standard type. I know there
are differences between the 50 and 75 ohm types but as these are on 50
ohm cable i would expect them to be the same all the way around. The
ones shown here, and i suspect all the newer cellular stuff uses this
style (not to be confused with cellular DIN types).
I guess the main question is, as long as they are "N" type connectors on
50 ohm cable are they fully compatible with the "N" type connectors we
see on ham or test equipment today.
I think the connectors are ok but i would rather not lay out money for
something that is not useable. Yes, i can replace connectors on
equipment if need be.
