[QUOTE="s-band, post: 1059079, member: 407744"] I use end feed pipe fittings. Most plumbing suppliers charge stupidly high prices for the larger sizes. JTM are my favoured shop and their prices for things like large reducers, couplers & pipe are very good. [URL='https://www.jtmplumbing.co.uk/pipe-fittings-c433/endfeed-fittings-35mm-219mm-c216']Endfeed Fittings 35mm - 219mm[/URL] I forgot to say that most Milsat is LHCP & DSN is RHCP. I also didn't mention frequency stability. It's not really a problem for milsat but for DSN the system needs to be locked to a good standard (GPS, rubidium etc) as you have to work in a very narrow bandwidth (sub-Hz).
