Why on earth did they decide on the F-type connector for DAB aerials, it
is a total pain to connect and is a matter of trial and error to get a
good connection why didn't they go for BNC?
when BNC connectors first appeared we thought the abbreviation stood for
B***** Nasty Connector. Unless you can find crimp ones, and they have to
be the correct ones for the cable size, they re very difficult to assemble
correctly - and the cost quite a bit more, too.
