There was a time obtaining a solder type BNC connector was easy. The kit
of about 9 individual bits assembled with a solder iron and a spanner, the
choice of using 50ohm or 75ohm, different types to suit your cable
diameter. The warm feeling got when ya knew that the centre pin was
definitely soldered and none of the electrons would deteriorate on their
journey.

I've just been looking through Amazon and eBay, doing an RG59 75ohm job.

All I can find are crimp/compression/twist types. Horrible. That centre
conductor ain't secure.

What happened??
