I've never soldered an APP and have very few problems with them that weren't a function of "operator error" on my part.
I use a set of Klein crimpers. It is important, at least with this particular tool, to carefully "re-round" the shank and re-align the tongue after crimping. This whole issue is probably more a function of people assuming that the voltage reported by the K3 is actually the supply voltage rather than an internal voltage, than it is to do with APPs. 73 Jack KZ5A K3 #4165 On 3/25/2011 7:28 AM, Nate Bargmann wrote: > I concur, Crimp connectors should never be soldered under any > circumstances.
