| 279603 | 2004-10-15 11:34:00 | I went to a scrap metal yard with my N Connector and tried a few bits of scrap copper wire, not sure if it the right gauge as I had to file the end just a little to jam it in the hole. But it works just fine. As long as it isnt to long(ie. dosent go over the half way) you cant go wrong. | Rob99 (151) | ||
