This is the short tool most everyone carries that I know that works in TV distribution..
I also have one with a long screwdriver shaft that works better for tightly racked equipment. such as the TV head-end I have at the hospital I work for. Most of the time you cannot possibly get a hand in and tighten or loosen. This one is excellent and can be even attached to your key ring. http://www.amazon.com/Cable-Security-Shield-Filter-Removing/dp/B001T75RGU/ref=sr_1_8/189-9366517-7553866?ie=UTF8&qid=1384496250&sr=8-8&keywords=f+connector+wrench 73' Clay Melhorn N9IO Bonfield, IL Webmaster: KARS - Kankakee Area Radio Society - W9AZ http://www.w9az.com/ > From: w...@arrl.net > Date: Thu, 14 Nov 2013 07:19:54 -0800 > To: n...@contesting.com > CC: Topband@contesting.com > Subject: Re: Topband: Replacing F Connectors with BNCs > > On Thu, Nov 14, 2013 at 4:38 AM, Pete Smith N4ZR <n...@contesting.com>wrote: > > That is certainly possible, Frank - I've been using Ideal compression > > connectors from Home Depot.
