If you ever run into a situation where you don’t have an adapter for these two connectors, a N male and BNC female, like what is common on a lot of radios, simply plug them together and it will still work. Just make sure it doesn’t fall out!
Yes, it sure is. Comparing the losses between Messi & Paoloni & LMR Coax cables. The numbers don’t lie in this heated battle between the two coax manufactures. Two will enter, only one will leave in this battle royal. But, you don’t have to take my word for it.

I’ve been chasing down some antenna issues… let’s see if its the coax? I figured out that I had just enough above ground coax that I could pull the cable through the wall and connect both ends to the NanoVNA for an S21 LogMag Thru test. Let’s get after it!
The only reliable source for NanoVNAs is R and L Electronics: https://randl.com
