Can anyone tell me how to prepare this RG-6 (F-6) for snap-n-seal connectors? Do I fold the braid back over the jacket? If so, how far?
And is the same true for RG-11 (F-11)? The temp is going to drop here in two days and I won't be able to do this after that in time for the Stew Perry. Since the list is in moderated mode, I'd appreciate a cc to my e-mail address. There's not time to buy the coax stripper. Thanks in advance! 73, Mike www.w0btu.com On Wed, Dec 19, 2012 at 5:08 PM, Mike Waters <mikew...@gmail.com> wrote: > I bought some of these from this seller and this eBay listing number, and > they arrived today.
