Hi Gene, WB2LLP
Any adapter particularly from a PL259 to any type of connector is always the neck of a bottle in a transmission line.
Every time you can and if room do permit to work safely change from PL-259 to a good quality N connector.

I use a male VHF to female N adapter. Do not remember where I got it, but it was one of the mail order houses. If you really do not want to use a
VHF
connector for 144, I would prefer the adapter over changing the socket on
my
- I prefer to stick with the different connectors as a guard against
Mr.
Murphy, but sometimes that is impossible.
