they won't spill. you'll wind up with a nasty SWR problem.
coax must alway be terminated correctly, so chain things together
you stick a T connector on each machine and at the ends of the
coax you screw on 50 ohm terminators. i have seen bad things
happen with unterminated coax.

i'm a bit confused, but read what i said above. you got a URL for
the adapter?
