Don't worry about doing both... It leaves you that much more sure that you won't lose connection and trust me... The electrons will forgive your soul for doing both! :)

I find it rather odd to make such a firm distinction. If I'm planning ahead and remember to bring the crimpers home from work, I'll typically just crimp. Otherwise, I just solder. Sometimes, though, I'll get picky and do both, such as on lines that will be carrying a fair bit of power. 73, Mike KW1ND _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
