Hi all,

I have a mix of chassis mount / floating connectors for 7/8" coax like LDF5-50 etc that I will never use so they need to find a new home.

Paul, by HF does that mean they are only suitable for HF? I.e no good for a run of LDF down my garden to serve top band to 70cms or to my dish on 2.4GHz.....
If suitable, please put me down for a pair of 'floating' subject to chasing up the exact size of some cable I was offered the other day.
Thanks.

Hi, yes unfortunately these are only suitable for use above 100MHz. I'm presuming the HF 7/8" means "HELIFLEX" which is like an air spaced version of the foam heliax. I don't have any of it here to look at but I guess these will fit 7/8" heliax/cellflex/heliflex cable.
