    Lot of 40 UHF PL259 Male Connectors for LMR240
    Connectors sold by MPD Digital are a result of overstocks and production changes.  Quantities are limited to stock on hand.  All connectors are milled Brass with heavy Nickel plating.  These are not cheap connectors and are the same ones we have used in over 9000 coax cable assemblies sold here on eBay.
    Connector sales are a sideline and incidental to production of the finest coaxial cable assemblies sold.  In addition to eBay and Amazon sales we have customers in all industries to include Government, Universities and major Corporations with current exports to Industrial clients in Europe, South America and Canada.

    A word on Our LMR Coaxial Cable Pricing
    Pricing by the foot
    - We price our cable assemblies by the foot including the cost of installed connectors.  While the price of the coax varies by length, the cost of connectors is fixed.  This means that the sales price of shorter cables varies very little.  Our cables are expected to have a life span of up to 20 years in amateur radio and wireless use. While we are happy to make your cable any length you like it may be wise to purchase one a little longer than you need in case your setup changes.
    Factory Direct
    - We purchase our coax factory direct from Times Microwave in 25,000 foot orders.  This allows us to purchase coax at a quantity discount, pass savings on to our customers, and maintain a stock level to fulfill orders.  We have a direct factory rep from Times Microwave and are a recognized Times dealer.
    Cutting Corners
    - We can purchase the Chinese coax sold by the majority of sellers here on eBay for
    Over 50% Less
    than what we pay Times Microwave. With copper prices up over 300% in the last year there is more pressure than ever on producers and sellers profit margins.  Many sellers have started selling this cheaper coax as "LMR240 or LMR400" at almost the same cost as we charge for the real thing.  We have purchased some of this coax and found it weighs 15% less per foot than Genuine Times or Andrew cable.  Although we have we do not know if this is due to metallic or plastic composition it reinforces our commitment to the genuine article.

    Testing Results for US Made LMR Coax
    Attenuation (Signal Loss) per 100/ft - (lower numbers are better)
    Attention
    : There are many Chinese companies quoting the same specs as Times Microwave and Andrew / Commscope Coaxial cable.
    There are some issues with this:
    Cheaper grades of cable may
    Start
    with the same loss but quickly degrade over time with significant signal loss.
    The Inner foil layer below the braided shield is bonded to the foam dielectric in a patented process that prevents signal leakage and moisture infiltration
    Only
    on US Made Times Microwave Coaxial Cable.
    True
    Mil Spec testing criteria is not followed by many Chinese offshore producers and when retested by UL cable has repeatedly failed to pass muster.
    When subjected to
    standardized
    quality testing - Jacket materials, Copper alloys, and Dielectric Foam have been found to be adulterated and containing contaminants.
    While there
    are
    quality Coaxial Cable producers in China and other offshore locations they mainly produce cable for major brand name retailers who provide their own quality control, and do not sell off cable under "generic" or off brand names.
    Coax Cable Loss is Frequency Dependent - The Higher your Frequency the More Important your Coax

    International Shipping
    We will Gladly ship to most Countries pursuant  to the following rules:
    EBay Customs Notice for International Buyers
    :
    We have never had a package held up or taxed by Customs but there is always a possibility.
    International Buyers
    – Please Note:
    Import duties, taxes and charges are
    not included
    in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.
    Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.
    These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.
    We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.
    ALL international shipping is done via USPS Air Mail. You can check the rates for your location at USPS.Com and just add to the direct cost to pay for our packaging and transport. I can ship other ways but the cost is
    much
    more expensive.  Shipping to Canada is double for signature items with tracking numbers and delivery to Europe and Australia is more than triple the USPS Air Mail cost.  In most cases it is not cost effective to buy my items and pay three times the price to ship them...  For more expensive items over I will offer the option of tracked shipping but in most cases you will be better off buying locall
    y.
    Payments
    You may pay is Online or via Phone or Fax. As we are a physical business, we accept both Paypal and major Credit Cards
    Sales Tax
    Only Georgia Residents will be charged sales tax.
