I paid lots for my soldering station and much less for my crimps ($80.00) as example for coax , the current crimps have done many thousands of connectors and might be replaced before i retire which will mean 2 decades of use . ________________________________ > To: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com > From: w9xt...@sbcglobal.net > Date: Sun, 19 Jul 2009 11:01:03 +0000 > Subject: [Repeater-Builder] Re: crimping vs soldering & types of coax > connectors > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > My experience has been that if you use a high quality cable, high quality connector and crimping dies made specifically for the particular cable and connectors...crimp-on will working very well. It won't be cheap though. I have, when practical, soldered the connector tip to the cable...after crimping, as an added insurance for a positive connection. If done corrctly and with high quality material, I now prefer crimped connections. > > > > Dave, W9XTZ > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > _________________________________________________________________ View photos of singles in your area Click Here http://a.ninemsn.com.au/b.aspx?URL=http%3A%2F%2Fdating%2Eninemsn%2Ecom%2Eau% 2Fsearch%2Fsearch%2Easpx%3Fexec%3Dgo%26tp%3Dq%26gc%3D2%26tr%3D1%26lage%3D18% 26uage%3D55%26cl%3D14%26sl%3D0%26dist%3D50%26po%3D1%26do%3D2%26trackingid%3D 1046138%26r2s%3D1&_t=773166090&_r=Hotmail_Endtext&_m=EXT ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
