    mannnnnnnn im sorry hearing about that . fucking ebay I tell yaaaaaaa. im trying to think would be the best place for you and the cheapest . I have to do some searches . everybody has there way of doing the shield on the PL-259 Connector . I do not ever solder the shield , if you apply to much heat you wind up melting right down to the center conductor . I just solder the center conductor very well. and to make sure the coax does not twist and turn I give it a little tab of black tape or a tab of epoxy at the end of the collar of the pl-259 backside so the connector will not turn in opposite directions if the coax desides to rock back and forth. some people are against not soldering and some are all for it . I have even tried it with a good 40 watter and always caused more damage . anyway its a preference thingggggggggggg . lol lol lol
