BNC-to-FT60 Adapter

 

Which model of the Diamond BNC-to-SMA adapters fits out FT-60 HTs the best?

Clint,
I use the?BNCJ-SMAP: SMA to BNC Adapter on my FT-60s.? Then, since it leaves a gap, I have used a black O ring from Lowes underneath the adapter.? It has a finished look to it and looks good.? (I didn't think of this, I saw it on this list a few years ago.)

Scott - did you slice the grommet in half, or did that gap "want" the whole thing?

Clint,
I used the whole thing; it was a small one that fit over it and when I screwed the adapted down it compressed?it and made for a nice fit.? I can send you a picture?if you want.

It it helps, this SMA-to-BNC adapter works well for an FT-60:

? ?https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CVQL14A/ (set of two, $4.50)

And a 3mm thick, 9mm ID (15mm OD) o-ring fits. (I've found them at local hardware stores.)
