I bought two of these to adapt a pair of FM HTs (Puxing PX-777+ and Baofeng UV-3r+) to a portable antenna with BNC connections. I THOUGHT that I'd checked them for continuity and shorts when they arrived, but in retrospect I wonder if I really did check for shorts.I was having some mysterious difficulties working the satellite (purpose of the antenna and these adapters). Sometimes I didn't hear the satellite, other times I could, but had only slight intermittent evidence that I was contacting it (voice making "round trip" in a full-duplex setup). After every day's attempts, I'd remove these adapters and replace the HTs' rubber duck antennas. Testing after one session revealed that I couldn't contact a local 2 meter repeater, usually very accessible with the directional antenna. After some thought, it occurred to me that there was a common element to my difficulties - these adapters. Sure enough, one was shorted. When I attached them to the HTs for the full-duplex satellite setup, sometimes the shorted adapter cable was on the uplink HT, sometimes on the downlink HT - thus the variable problems. A short is very hard on a transmitter - I'm lucky that it didn't damage the uplink HT. The cables and connectors appear to be of good quality, and they are neatly and firmly assembled. Yet, there is a very solid short in one (wiggling the connectors on either end doesn't seem to open it, even briefly). I've not been too hard on these during the couple of weeks I was using them, and conclude that the short was likely there from the beginning. I'm guessing that it was a random manufacturing error, as attaching connectors to coaxial cables is always a tricky proposition, with shorts from braid to center conductor a common error. It should have been checked for as part of QC - and I should have checked for it (thought I did). Is this a 50% problem? I doubt it. Probably one in 50, 100, 500, who knows. That's why I'm not rating it lower - I suspect that this is a rare problem.I've just given up on it, probably not repairable with crimped-on connectors, and not worth shipping back considering the cost. I've just ordered another one - with the idea that this is just bad luck (though you know that I'll be checking the new one carefully!). So: A neatly and nicely made adapter cable, but one that you should check to be sure that it is properly assembled before using it.Update: The replacement adapter cable arrived, and as I'd hoped it checks out fine. I probably just got a rare mis-assembled one.

it is used in connecting a backpack 2 meter unit to an BNC antenna. it allows me to use an old comet antenna for a new yaesu HT.
