Can any recommend a good BNC connector for this cable?

I recently ordered a DPD Air Omni and want to make up a N male to BNC Male to send to my MCA204M.

I have a bunch of Wireman Flexi 4XL CQ102 left over from a previous install, I am awaiting a reply from the site but second opinions are always welcome.

BNC is not very common on RG-8 size cable and for good reasons.
It's not? that's news to me... and Amphenol and Times Microwave and RF Industries

The only technical details I can find on Wireman Flexi 4XL CQ102 is that the center conductor is 19/23 BC wire and the nominal diameter is 0.405". This is similar enough to LMR-400-UF and Belden 9913F7 that connectors designed for those cables will work with what you have.

I've probably handled tens of thousands of cables in my lifetime and I can recall maybe a couple RG-8 size cables with BNCs on them that passed through my hands. Not very common in the real world. Yes they are made by many companies but just not used much.

I would not want to have a fat 9913 type cable with a BNC stuck on the back of my multicoupler anyway, use a small jumper instead.

Let's just say there are lots of different "real worlds" out there. Properly secure the cable and you won't have any issues.
