I suggested things like TV units (Electroline etc,) but they don’t want to deal with F-Connectors. Making their own (like I did) is also beyond their purview. Stridsberg has been non-responsive recently. I don’t know if they are still operating. Anyone else make commercially available multicouplers these days with BNC connectors? View article »

Causes slight issues relocking onto Priority 2 when it goes to check Priority 1, about a second of dropped traffic at worst. Sometimes the dropout is almost unnoticeable Occasionally, the dropout is consistently... Read more View article »

All the reviews on these have been good and the set I've had for about 2 weeks have been impressive. Threw one in my desk at work just in case and one in the car glovebox. USB-C makes these a no-brainer since my phone can reverse charge or I'm carrying a battery pack most of the time. Miles... Read more View article »
