[QUOTE="PaulR, post: 869528, member: 176256"] [ATTACH]61135[/ATTACH] Might also be an N-type plug. As one knurled outer ring looks much like another you can see the difference on the open end. [ATTACH]61136[/ATTACH] The N plug has an inner sleeve which is the outer shield. The knuled ring is just for connecting purposes. On the PL259 the knurled ring serves double duty as shield and connector. As to what it's doing there my first thought was that it might from an old taxi service base station but they use simple folded dipoles normally. Another thought is that, especially as it's by a rail line, it was for point-to-point comunication between two stations. Most of the independant radio communication nowadays has been swallowed up in digital conglomerates such as Airwave which serves the Police and, I think Ambulance services. [/QUOTE]
