Shortening the Coaxial Cable (optional)
The coaxial cable from the LT-800 to the antenna should be kept as short as
possible. You can purchase an LA-127 RG-58 BNC Connector from Listen, and

• Strip back cable jacket 0.6 inches (15 mm).
• Strip back cable braid 0.25 inches (6.4 mm).
• Strip back cable dielectric 0.15 inches (4 mm).
• Slide outer ferrule onto cable.
• Slide male contact onto cable center conductor so that it butts against
dielectric.
• Crimp male contact in place using crimp tool. Do not overcrimp.
• Fold braid back to allow the plug body assembly to slide under braid.
• push plug body on cable until center pin is flush with end of plug body.
• Slide outer ferrule over the braid and up against connector body.
• Crimp outer ferrule using crimp tool
• Check continuity of cable center conductor and sleeve to verify proper
