[Elecraft] BNC & SO 239

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Right you are! 

I had to go look it up  The "Threaded Niell-Councelman" is a TNC, not a
"Type N".  Gee... Looking at that I wonder how they got the initials
"TNC", Hi!!

Not any of the "N" types I've seen, the common versions take RG-213 or
RG-43 size cable.  However, I've also installed them on Andrew 7/8"
Heliax, these are huge in the body but have the standard "N" Type mating
arrangement.

I think the threaded BNC is a TNC though I won't die in a ditch over it.
