Re: Item to check on TR7 plug-in coax connections
I can't take full credit. Barry N4BUQ first posted the info. Interestingly, Tektronix appears to still use Peltola.

Aha! Jim, you solved a mystery for me, as I knew I had seen those connectors somewhere else. Steve Wedge, W1ES/4 Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana. Sent from [Proton

Re: Item to check on TR7 plug-in coax connections

Re: Latest problem with RV-75
