Does anyone make the reversed SMA that will work with .141 hardline?

Works, or can be made to work?  My favorite source (RF Industries)
carries the normal SMA to 0.141 connector as RSA-3500-141

but on the RP-SMA page, doesn't show anything for semi-rigid

However, if you're clever or devious, you might be able to solder one
of the other (crimp?) type connectors onto the 0.141 coax if the
insulation diameters are the same.  I can't tell from the data sheet
and really don't want to go through every connector page.  Maybe
calling or writing RF Industries?

Also, I did find some companies selling RP-SMA connectors and 0.141
semi-rigid coax cable assemblies.  They must get their connectors from
somewhere.  However, you may need to buy one to find the vendor:

Bingo.  Wellshow (never heard of them).

Thanks Jeff, We can always count on you. I have a situation where the
antenna is getting shadowed by the computer case. I just wanted to
extend the connection a few inches to get the antenna above the
computer. I tried drilling out the little nipple you would normally
crimp the coax shield to and soldering the hardline to the connector.
This may have worked if I had a small torch that I could silver solder
it with. Pb/Sn proved to be too weak but it did prove the concept.
