Yeah. Cheap tools always come to roost sooner or later. Usually sooner and
at a very bad time! Grin

Welcome back to the list, Roger.
Marlon,
I had a crimper like that with a crack in it. Poor crimps kept biting me
in the posterior, till I bought one of these:

I got mine locally from a electrician supply place, but approx that price.
The end goes in closer to the axis of the lever as cheaper crimpers, so
you crimp twice as hard with less effort, and there is a "stop" you can
feel when you have crimped hard enough. After using this one, I am through
buying $15-$20 crimpers like this one:

the $25 ones Radioshack sells.

We're working on getting people to fill out the fcc forms. We're hunting
for new spectrum (current fight is for unused tv spectrum). Today I
checked on the 5.4 band. It's to the spell check the certification docs
phase. We're "very close" on that one! Also checked on 3650 and tv white
spaces (at the fcc), nothing new to report at this time.
As for a really fun one...... Yesterday I found out that there's a
hairline crack on my cat5 crimper. It's not pushing the connectors all
of the way down. Don't know if it's been that way for 2 days, 2 months
or 2 years. I do know that I've got a lot, maybe hundreds, of
connections that aren't completely crimped! Guess I'll be finding them
over the next few years. sigh
Great to see ya here. Hope you stick around man. For an old man like
you, it's probably a good thing you are spending a lot of time near
hospitals! roflol
That help?

Bored to tears in a hotel room outside of Richmond, VA so I thought I'd
jump onto this list and see who's here and what we're talking about
lately. Haven't been doing much outdoor wireless stuff for more than a
year
now.. All indoor - mostly in hospitals and warehouses in support of
RFID installations..
Just seeing what's hot and what's not these days.
Carry on.
