It's on a Chelton transponder antenna p/n 2413-89-00. The outside diameter is 0.540 in. There are two locking pins, no threads. Thanks.

I think that connector is a C-series device (BIG version of the BNC). This chassis connector is a UG-568/U Emacs! Mating cable males are pretty pricey . . . Emacs! Allied wants $125 for this UG-573A/U and it doesn't install on an RG-400 coax. This military is really fond of this connector in very high power pulse applications (radar and ECM). I've never encountered one in the commercial wild. What kind of connector is on the radio? You might want to consider a different antenna with a more popular and MUCH less expensive BNC or TNC connector.

Sounds like I'm out of luck. Too bad because it's a neat little low drag antenna that I got for $20. I guess that's why. There's a BNC on the transponder. Too bad Oshkosh is 50 weeks ago because there's probably one in the fly market for $1. Thanks. John Robert L.

If you've got the room to stack this up inside the airplane. I can supply you RG-142 with a N-CM connector and BNC on the other end. You can order the adapter at: http://www.mgs4u.com/C-adapters.htm Bob . . . ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 03:46:58 PM PST US From: John Grosse Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Coax Connector I was just going to post that I found that adapter as well. I was going to combine it with a N-male to BNC-female adapter, but if you can put a male-N on the end of a BNC/RG-142 cable that would eliminate one connector and make for a little bit neater installation. How much and how do I order it? Thanks. John Robert L. Nuckolls, III wrote: > At 03:21 PM 8/18/2011, you wrote: >> >> >> That's it. Sounds like I'm out of luck.

How much and how do I order it? Go to my website catalog at httP://aeroelectric.com and fill in the order. Scroll down to the RG-142 cable assemblies and enter "N-CM", length in feet and "BNC-CM" in the boxes at the top of the form. Go down to the bottom and hit 'submit'. The cable will be $1.50/ft and no charge for the connectors. Postage will be about $1.50 Bob . . . ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message aeroelectric-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/AeroElectric-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/aeroelectric-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/aeroelectric-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
