BNC....
Bayonette N Connector.

The type N is a true coaxial connector (no change in waveguide diameter) and
is a screw-on type for RG-8 size cable. The BNC is also a true coaxial
connector for RG58 size cable (smaller waveguide).

What isn't a true coaxial connector? PL259's, which function much like the N
but don't maintain the waveguide diameter and hose impedence.

Sorry, twas a ham geek.
