If that's the case, Elecraft should crimp the connectors on to the cable that comes with the kit K3. Expecting assemblers to buy a special tool just to fit two connectors is unreasonable. Having said that, I soldered my connectors as advised like no doubt hundreds of other K3 assemblers and have not experienced any problems. If Elecraft think it's OK to solder the connectors I'm not going to disagree with them. ----- Julian, G4ILO.
