Hi,
Looking at the tech spec sheet I don't see a power rating?  Also
remember these are 75 ohm connectors...  Anyone know what the max power
you can pump through one of these are?

Thanks and 73's,

I also have a 25' piece of RG-8x with a PL-259 on one end and the BNC on the other for when I go to the park and operate. I have not had any failures with them; your mileage may vary. :)
