Most hams take great pride in being prepared for any contingency, whether tinkering in the shack, helping a friend set up his or her station, or in the field when bad weather arrives. And nothing says “I’m ready for anything—
bring it on!” like having a well-stocked cabinet filled with a wide variety of coaxial cable adapters because, well, you just never know what to expect sometimes.
That’s why DX Engineering carries a selection of 29 finely-built adapters to help prevent signal loss and make sure you live up to your reputation as Mr. or Mrs. Fully Prepared. These Type N, UHF Male (PL-259), UHF Female (SO-239), BNC, Type F and mini-UHF adapters let you complete your RF connections and get you on the air fast. They are sold in quantities of 1, 2, 4, or 6 depending on type. Here are a few to choose from:
Straight, N Male/UHF Female (pair)
