Sorry if this is a duplicate. I didn't see it post and I want to make 
sure my previous post (mistake) gets corrected.

Umm... Phil, I got the part number incorrect.

Honestly, I'm not sure what I ordered or from whom. The part number I
gave you was for a Pro-flex cable so disregard that part number. That
part number is from a diagram on connector assembly (it had been 25
years since I put a BNC connector together and that was in tech school).

That said, RF Industries does make solder-pin / clamp connectors and The
Wireman sells solder-pin / clamp connectors for RG-8x. Call and ask
them, but it looks like their (The Wireman) part number for a male BNC
for RG-8x is 1308. The RG-8x BNC connector from RF Industries is an
RFB-1101-1X.

Sorry for the confusion.
