Hi I have a Paladin PAL 1645 tool that works on the small pins used in the speaker/counter probe connectors and also works on the larger pins used on the RF and 12V AUX connectors. I have had the tool for about 20 years. Digikey has them but they are now around $150
http://www.digikey.com/scripts/dksearch/dksus.dll?Detail?name=PAL1645-ND I have a selection of crimp tools for just about any connector I run across that I have acquired over the last 30 years. Red blue yellow barrel terminals, D-sub, Molex, Amp, Anderson PP, crimp RF connectors. I do not like to solder a crimp pin if I can use the proper tool to crimp the pin. The tools are expensive but last a lifetime. There are also some tools with interchangeable die sets. The ratchet handle is about $100 and the die sets are about $60 each. You may run across a tool at a swap meet at a good price.
