My preference is non locking purely so that I can tell if the connector fit is a good one or not. I would be worried that 'locking' could give the impression of a good contact without that actually being the case.

I have locking but don't lock them. If I was going to leave my rig alone, then Hell yes.

George Cardas: Mechanical screw-locking RCA's come and go. They seem like a good idea, but in reality they are a very bad idea because they crush and unscrew the cheap females found in much of the equipment in the field. Our SRCA is a far superior arrangement. It uses a coil spring around the ground electrodes to conform the male to the female (our female RCA's do the same thing internally).
