Re: An affordable female calibration kit, anywhere?


 

Get a crimper and some connectors and make your own M/F cables. The coax used is either RG-316 or RG-174. The RG-316 is preferred as it is low-loss although I doubt it makes a difference at 150 mm. Oh yeah, some amalgamating heat shrink tubing will be handy for strain relief. The amalgamating tubing has a heat-activated coating of glue on the inside.

Ten male SMA crimp connectors are less than $10 US, same for the female SMAs and the RG-316 is $15 US.

For 35 bucks, you'll have 10 M-F jumpers in your choice of lengths.
