Review on πŸ”Œ 5-Pack Ancable UHF PL-259 Male to Female L Shape Right Angle RF Coaxial Adapters for CB Ham Radio Antenna by Jack Bhowmik

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The new version has been greatly improved. To update.

Plugs only have two tiny prongs to lock onto the socket. These strips are simple and then the connector simply rotates. One of the adapters fell apart. The male part is only pressed in and cannot break when tightening on the machine. When it fell apart, only two brass rods remained inside, touching at a 90 degree angle. How do you say. You get what you pay for. I added photos. "Ancable 1" shows the 2 pins in the connector being stripped, allowing the connector to rotate once tightened. "Ancable 2/3" shows a disconnected connector. There is no solder on the brass rod holding the 90 degree arc together. He's just under pressure. Support contacted me about this issue. I will update after the solution. UPDATE: The seller contacted me and gave me a full refund and offered to send me an updated/improved product. Judging by my photos I got the old stock from Revain and not the newer version. Anyway, I appreciate the great customer service and follow up from the seller. I will update the review once I receive and test the improved version. UPDATE: I got new and improved connectors and they are 100% better. They are soldered together, which means they cannot separate. The socket head cap screw on the male end is much tighter and flexes less. Definitely recommend the improved version.
