Re: Homebrew connectors

Hi gang,
I've been thinking about making some homebrew connectors for RG-174/U
coax. I plan to use them to interconnect several enclosures made of PC
board material. I envision something like an SMB connector made from
some of the brass tubing that can be found in hobby shops. Rather than
re-invent the wheel, I thought I would ask here if anyone has done
something like this. The goal is to avoid the large size of something
like a BNC connector along with the attendant high cost of most all RF
connectors.

Tnx!

You can reduce the connector number by one half by drilling a hole in your
PCB enclosure and running the >input cable inside the box and soldering it
to the board, then put a connector on the other end of the cable.
All outputs> would have the connector mounted to the box.
