[Milsurplus] JTV680 Vertical antenna SO239 connector

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

The problem with the Type N (and C and BNC) is that unless you use either 
the crimp type or the shipboard armored type, they are sorta fragile.  And 
although impedance wise they are flatter than the UHF, I would take exception 
at least at HF to saying that they are "much" better.
