RG11 however I thought that a standard PL-259 such as an 83-1SP fits that
cable perfectly.

I have a lot of it, both Belden 8213 and Davis RF-branded with the same specs (and I measured loss, Zo, and VF). The fit quite well into 83-1SP connectors. But remember, Most RG-numbers are NOT a spec, and have not been for decades.

When I terminated those lengths of 1/2-in CATV hardline, I found neat methods online for improvising use UHF connectors, and I used my own variation of that method.
