That's exactly what I did in my semi-permanent GPS-disciplined oscillator 
installation. I also do the same thing when I connect my outdoor discone 
antenna to my USRP. Both of them have thick feedlines (similar to RG8, LMR400, 
etc.) terminated with male N connectors, and that's a lot of mass and leverage 
to hang off a little SMA connector.
