Pigtail Antenna without N-Male Connector
Hey,

Instead of using an N-Male and N-Female Connectors for the pigtail to the antenna is it possible to use a Pigtail with N-Female BulkHead Connector in order to make a cantenna, without the use of the N-male connector?

Yes, you will just have a really short antenna cable. The buffalo one I have has a nut on it so you could tighten it too.

Ok Thanks, Just making sure it will save me like 20 bucks just to buy a pigtail with n-female bulhead, Instead of getting both once I get that I would just have to soder a copper wire to it.

Just make sure you get the top of the f connector as flush to the inside of the cantenna as possible.

What do you mean by "as flush"? As far?

You don't want the connector to stick up very far into the cantenna.
