Art:
By design a TNC is weather sealed.
BUT! TNC was NOT designed with a Crimp.
They are SOLDER type.
I HATE crimp type. Too many problems and sharp edges.
And, why would you go to ACS for a standard off the shelf electronic item?

Barry,
I don't get to choose the connector; Trig did that when they built their
GPS. I chose to follow their recommendation for RG-400 coax. Then I
followed up on Charlie's suggestion. I read the specs more closely and I
found that
http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/elpages/amphenol11-15369.php is the
right connector for RG-400. I like the $2.25 price so I'll buy it.
As for why buy from Aircraft Spruce, it comes down to convenience and cost,
especially if I can bundle the two dollar connector with an order for other
stuff and get free shipping. For a single two dollar part, I am not willing
to spend much time finding the "best" price.
