Our installers are too lazy to put their radios together in the field (kids these days!). Instead, they do it on that conference table in the climate controlled office before throwing them in the van. The temp does sometimes get down into the 40's here, so I don't really blame them for it. On Th

I will give them credit for standardizing the tools you need for assembly and installation, if you have a 13mm wrench and a 5mm hex key you’re probably good to go. I think stuff with ground screws maybe takes a 10mm wrench. Of course I got eye rolls from installers when I told them they’d ne
