Re: PL259 - Can get center wires through tapered sleeve
I'm all ears if anyone can point me to a good supplier of quality PL259 connectors

Also, wondering about. Previous owner had a female coupler inside the base of the mast but I'm considering running the coax straight from antenna to the radio with no breaks. I'll leave a few feet of extra cable inside the boat, so when taking mast down, I'll snip and then just install another PL259

Is that common or should I just do the female coupler again in the base of mast

I prefer less connections
