An elecraft "approved" alternative is acceptable to me.
I don't mind retrofitting....i would get the kit form anyway so it's a snap.

But I would like it to be blessed by the design team.

You know, a blessing.

Oak Hills Research sells a similar BNC bulkhead connector that fits in a UHF
hole.

http://www.ohr.com/parts.htm

BNC can handle roughly the same power as UHF. The max voltage on an Amphenol
UHF connector is 600V. The max for BNC is 500V. A Type N connector can
handle 1500V, so you can see how poor the UHF is for its size.

The UHF connecor will handle more power than a type N,,, has negligable loss
through 450 Mhz EZ to install and anyone that installs any connector outside
and doesnt tape and seal is asking for issues used UHFs in a 432 array which
was up for 10 years the connectors were as bright N shiny as when I out em
up,,, when I took then down
