Bob and all,
Some time ago you published a page on connecting a regular (big) BNC
connector to a skinny coax cable (RG 174 ?).
To date I've been unable to retrieve the document.
Could you point me in the right direction ?
Thanks,
Best regards,
--

I vaguely remember that . . . but I can't put
my hands on the imagery in my picture files.
There are several approaches but the general
idea is to get the electrical connections made
up by the usual crimp/solder techniques and
the "pot" the small coax body into the too-large
connector with epoxy or super-glue.
I'd prepare the end of the RG-174 like . . .
http://aeroelectric.com/articles/shldwire/shldwire.html
Cut the center conductor back to leave about
1'4" insulation, strip end and crimp on
the center pin. You may want to double-back
the strands of 174 before inserting them into
the pin to make sure you got plenty of copper
in the wire-grip.
Fold the shield-tail back as you push the
pin into place in the connector body.
Wrap the shield-tail over the end
of the shield grip so you can slide
the ferrule over it and crimp. Trim
of excess shield tail. Now you can
fill the cavity around the cable
with epoxy. A slow-set variety is
probably called for so that it says
"runny" long enough to penetrate as
far as possible into the open voids
around the cable.
Bob . . .
