Abstract
A method of making an electrical connector especially suitable for coupling an antenna leadin with a printed circuit board in a receiver chassis comprising forming up a tubular sheet metal body from an originally flat blank into tubular form with confronting edges along a longitudinal joint, providing opposite ends of the body with means for mounting it in functioning position, assembling within the body a member such as a dielectric support carrying an electrical contact in electrically contacting relation at a location within the body spaced from one end of the body which provides an opening into a plug-receiving socket between said one end and said support and mechanically interlocking the dielectric support and the body to retain the body against spreading open at the joint in the vicinity of the support. More specifically, interlocking lug-means are driven from the body into a recess in the support to effect the interlocking relationship.
