Old 14th April 2003, 06:37 thats a yee long time ago . so i read through that speculation to come to the conclusion it has to do with the ring and the pin size so i took out a canare and a bjc 75 ohm all 3 pin size look the same, all 3 have different lengths of pins but maybe those are not even 75 ohm ohh audio world why do you do this to me

im buy a whole bunch of bncs that are 75 ohm and compare them now at least i have something to do now

nice job. i guess you figured everything out! i like all the colors.

 

[drummerdimitri]

Thank you! I love the colors too, but would have preferred to used some transparent rubber tubing to keep the wires from spreading apart when compressed, but don't have any lying around, so i opted for the raw look of explosive colors instead.

Clear heat shrink

Unfortunately, i don't have the required materials or a heat gun for that! Might get some for xmas though, who knows...

Hairdryer!

Lighter's don't work as well on non-black tubing. It'll burn unless you hold it a certain distance away and even then, clear tubing will usually discolor from the smoke given off. The only lighter I've found that works on clear and colored heatshrink without being a PITA are torches. Heatgun's only $10 though so it's cheaper just to buy one of those from Harbor freight than it would be to buy a good torch lighter.

Actually, you have to hold it closer. As long as you keep the heatshrink in the blue (non-oxidizing) part of the flame, it will not discolor. The yellow part of the flame will make it nasty looking. You have to be fast, too.
