DB-420 16 bay UHF folded dipole.

[W3WN]

Not able to get up there today. but this is the connector http://www.pasternack.com/n-female-s...-pe4515-p.aspx

$25 for a connector? For an "F" connector? What are they making it out of, gold pressed latinum?

Seriously, though, if you know a ham who works at a broadcast station, or in another RF related professional field, see if they have some of these around.

Actually it is a N type female 75ohm and believe me I checked my local guys. I can get plenty of 50ohm stuff from N to 7/16 DIN to EIA but 75 ohm is a dry bed.

SGJ - This antenna is actually a 16 bay folded dipole. it has dual folded dipoles on each bay in a total of 8 bays of dual folded dipoles. 9.2 db gain in omni or 11.2 db in a offset. the 75 ohm coax is the harness. and to interconnect the 2 sets of 4 dual bays they use 75 ohm connectors. (which is where the N female/75 center pin is borked) some jackass goobered it up thus I ended up with is for free. and plan to use it on my repeater.

I still aint been able to get to the shop to get pics of it. $4 a gal gas kinda kills travel over here.
