When I've had to do this, I've put an 'N' to SMA on the fat cable, and used a short piece of thin flexible cable with SMAs on it. Jameco stocks cables with SMAs with both RG58 and RG-174. The RG174 is thin, but lossy, so you don't want to use too much of it, depending on your operating frequency. -- Marcus Leech Principal Investigator Shirleys Bay Radio Astronomy Consortium http://www.sbrac.org _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
