I am looking for a female version of the standard PL-259 connector. It
connects the same way a 259 does, but is simply a female version.
I called The Wireman and was told they no longer handle these connectors
due to no interest.
My goal is to make a jumper cable (I've seen these connectors at Rad Shack
on pre-made cables) with a male on one end, a female on the other so as to
add a 25 ft. length of cable without having to mess with a barrel
connector.
Anybody know where this can be found? And, NO, I am not in the market for
an SO-239.

A female PL-259 will have the threaded ring on it- how will you deal with 2
threaded rings being mated together? What you ARE looking for is an in-line
SO-239. Pasternack and The RF Connection both carry them for cables from
RG-58 to RG-213 sized cables.
