Russian connectors!
I'm sick of Putin up with them! The genders are all wrong.
Hand me a piece of western coax cable. Before the US Govt started going all kooky with requiring reverse polarity SMA for wifi antennas ... the knurled or movable bayonet part of a coax connector went on the plug (male) end. Thats the way Neil Counselman intended.
I used to work with a lot of Soviet kit and this was precisely bassackwards. So we had to hack western coax connectors to make cables to interconnect stuff.
Then one fine day my whole team was out and a different tech was in the lab, saw all our modified cables and threw them out, proclaiming, "what dumbass made these assemblies???". Wanker.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
