Hi there. Does anyone know of a good way of testing
terminations on LMR cable? It seems that too often
we don't have good connections as a result of improper
terminations.
thanks

If you have a network analyzer handy, you can terminate
one end of the cable path and flex the cable, shake/twist
the connections, etc. Any problems would show up
as return loss variation.
Otherwise, you
can disassemble all the connections and check for
contamination, broken or scratched contact areas,
etc. Lots of problems are caused by poor mechanical
connections.
