I should have read all of the posts first. It is interesting that coax has a much higher voltage rating than the connectors however Amphenol UHF connectors rarely fail even after direct lightning strikes.

So the connectors could be another weak point. https://www.amphenolrf.com/connectors/uhf.html wunder K6WRU Walter Under ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
