[Elecraft] why mix rf connector types within the product line?

[Jeff Herr]

I don't want to buy or make or use any adapters.

Why not keep the connector consistent across the product line?

That is the question!

Or you could get some thing like:

ssemblies-bnc-n-pl259-sma-so23/pl259-to-bnc-male-jumpers/

I can't vouch for ABR's products (never tried them). Personally, I would
make my own....
