| QUESTIONS & ANSWERS |
 |
The new LCF version of the mini in-line socket is lower in price than the familiar F - are there any disadvantages?
 No, the LCF is a new design, and although it has single instead of double contact, is every bit as rugged and reliable as the old F type, which is being withdrawn.
