Abstract: A device for testing continuity of coaxial cables and tracing coaxial cables through junction boxes and the like includes a cylindrical housing formed in penlight fashion with an LED at the distal end and a battery disposed therein. The proximal end of the housing is provided with a female coaxial fitting having the conductor receiving portion connected in the LED-battery circuit. A cable terminator is provided, including a male coaxial fitting in which the conductor portion is shorted directly to the shield-engaging portion. The cable terminator is secured to a distant end of a coaxial cable, e.g., far removed from a cable junction box. The female coaxial fitting is secured to one of many near cable ends within or exiting from a junction box; if the coaxial circuit is completed and the LED is illuminated, it is determined that the distant and near cable ends are opposite ends of the same coaxial cable.
