The day I crimp a coax connector will be the day of my cremation. 73 Charles Harpole [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The tool was about $50, I think, so it doesn't take many pigtails to pay back its cost. You can, of course buy lower loss coax. My club has dozens of jumpers in our repeaters. One of the standard sources for iindustry is Pasternack, but they are expensive. It would be great for several hams, or a club, to share a crimper. RF Connectors is a relatively cheap connector source. rfindustries.com 800 233 1728.

Hi Jim, I just did a Google search for "low loss cable" and got 392,000 hits! Most popular, of course, will be the first few hits. Try this one: radioworks.com/ccoax.html.

Tks for the comments Don. I suppose the quality issue is moot, it appears they have gone out of business anyhow. 73 de Jim K4PYTSubscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chatTo post a message, DX related items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chatTo post a message, DX related items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chatTo post a message, DX related items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-chat To post a message, DX related items only, dx-chat@njdxa.org This is the DX-CHAT reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
