They need to do their homework. The BNC connector is a 50-ohm connector -- not a 75-ohm connector.

According to Wikipedia a BNC connector can be either 50 or 75 Ohm.

Yes, but they're different in appearance. Walt has incorrectly identified the 75ohm connector on the Gungnir as 50ohms however.

Actually no -- some vendors will sell them as 75-ohm out basic ignorance and so-goes the buyers. Attached are comparative images to view for entertainment and education. :character-oldtimer:

That's only one variant. There ARE 75ohm jacks that have an insulator on the center conductor, it's just smaller. A BNC jack that has no insulator on the center conductor is almost certainly 75ohm, but if it has an insulator, you have too look more closely.
