Note another very important part of their statement -- that the 50 or 75 
ohm impedance of the connector matters ONLY above 1 GHz, and only then in 
demanding applications. At HF, VHF, and below, the ONLY things that 
matters are that it fits the cable, it mates with other connectors, is 
reasonably easy to install, and is mechanically reliable.
