RCA connector question

[Dave Edwards]

The only thing I can add is that there are RCA phono plugs with longer
center shafts. I was told they were used with Collins equip. They have them
at the RF connection.
I have a bunch myself, and they are differant than standard plugs available
at Radio Shack etc.

Greetings All;

Here is a question from a neophyte heathkit lover. Are the RF connectors
used to connect to the backs of such rigs as the SB-101 and SB-300/400 the
same as the standard phono connectors one might buy at radioshack. I believe
I've heard them referred to RCA. I need to make up some patch cables and
need to know if there are issues of voltage rating, impedance or other that
requires a connector that does more than just fit.

Thanks in advance for your help.
