New Products from the 'Connection
- The price of modern coax (RG400/RG141/RG142) is getting expensive. We've acquired a
quantity of RG-142 as cut pieces with connectors already installed both ends. The 'Connection
is offering to supply custom coax assemblies fabricated from this random inventory
for $1.50/ft with connectors of your choice already installed. Check out this new
listing at by clicking here.
- We've crafted the 9001-22HD pin-positioner that converts the popular 20D Eclipse quad-crimp
tool to accurately handle the 22HD pins.
- Making accurate measurements of very low resistance (under 20 ohms) can
be problematic with the contemporary volt-ohmmeter. Test lead resistance is
a significant portion of the total. We've updated the 9801 Low-Ohms adapter.
The improved product uses a heavier current source (6v lantern battery) and configured
it to offer either 0.1 amp or 1.0 amp constant current excitation to a pair of clips
which emulate the 4-wire measurement technique described in this article.

The 'Connection now offers the services of Bob Nuckolls for any tasks that will help move
your project along. This can include but is not limited to custom design of architectures,
