[MRCA] UG-565 adapters

[Anthony Clare]

I used to have a couple few cables around here with C connectors on them from
my father's MARS days. If I can find them, I will put them aside for you.

As for adapters, I will keep an eye out but I do not think I have any.

Why do UG-565 Type C to Type N adapters cost so much! The final output
combiner on my Harris RF-1110B uses them on its input and the output of the
rack frame are all type N plugs. Been using just one half of the amplifier,
two panels and that comes out as a signal N connector on the back of the
amplifier frame. But now that I am getting the other half of the amplifier up
and running will need to connect the original external RF combiner network
external of the amplifier and that has type C connectors. Don't know what I
did with the original cables but will have to have matching cables from each
set of amplifiers and matching adapters to keep everything in phase. Have a
couple adapters now for the output and rejection load.
Looked on eBay and it looks like they beat you down for at least twenty or
thirty bucks per adapter! Plus shipping. Maybe I can con someone around here
for less?
Wonder who's idea it was to use C connectors anyway?
