Plus there is still another crimp tool to buy/find/use if you want to
make your own connectors.
I wonder who has the most crimp tool laying around and how many. Repair
of the jack on the rig side is no picnic either.

I really dislike the current trend of using the RJ45 as a mic jack.
Motorola started using them that way and it ended up being one of

physically stressed constantly (at the end of a mic cable).
I sure agree, Ed. Had to replace a Yaesu FM xcvr mic last year for
just that very reason.
