I don't know why hams are "stuck" on the inferior PL-259
plug and SO-239 socket. Well, I do. It's because manufacturers
keep sticking them on the back of radios and we don't insist
that they stop using them. For a small connector, I would
prefer SMA. BNC is "OK" but the bayonets wear out if you
you connect/disconnect them enough times. For a "large"
connector, the N connector is superior in so many ways.
