Time for me to point to my favorite treatise on crimping vs soldering: http://www.dimebank.com/misc/soldered_connections.html
(These days, I crimp, solder the lug end but don't let the solder flow all the way to the wire end, and use heat shrink to prevent flexing. If there is any chance it will get moist, I put hot melt glue under the heat shrink!) 73 de chris K6DBG _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
