Because we have to disconnect all antennas when we leave the station, I've made a PL-259-to-male BNC jumper for the IC-7300. I have a female UHF-to-female BNC adapter on order. BNC connectors are made for repeated disconnects and reconnects and easily handle 100 W. I'll make the same things for the LPDA transmission line. IC-9700 will get this, too. Managing antenna swapping will be a bit easier. Once the adapters arrive, I'll set it all up. No excuses: get on the air! 73, Kim Elmore N5OP ASDRS ARC Faculty Advisor, WX5NWC Trustee -- Kim Elmore, Ph Kim Elmore, Ph.D. (Adj. Assoc.
