I have also always done the finger tight as tight as I can then only a partial turn with pliers after. 1/4 turn would be pretty close to what I do. And on all regulkar rocket m2s and m5s clay is right, as I'm sure most people have noticed that under nut is almost always loose and should be tight end. I haven't found any new rocket prism acs with a loose one yet though so hopefully that's not as frequent anymore.

More then a 1/4 turn WILL crimp rubber washer or break/crack circuit board. The check to do is, tighten tiny bit, try to remove with fingers, continue until you can not loosen with fingers no matter how hard you try.

It's it generally practiced to tighten a little bit, ie quarter turn?

Latter is more common as techs sometimes forget to wrench 1/4 turn... finger tight will loosen. Also, many radios come with the curl nut, under the male antenna plug on radio, is loose and under it is a tiny rubber washer. So what happens is you tighten ant cable properly, but the under curl nut is up some micro meters, enough for moisture to get in. You should check every radio's curl nut with a small pliers before attaching ant cable. On Wed, Jun 14, 2017 at 1:10 PM, Josh Luthman <[email protected]> wrote: Any guesses?
