Now I'm aerial playing I need to sort these bas*eds out! Have used the solder ones but not easy, so many fiddly bits and outdoors if its windy a nightmare.
So I treated myself to a crimp tool and bought some RG58 crimp connectors. Watched a video and it all looked not too bad and certainly a lot less fiddly. But the connectors I got, possibly Ebay, were useless. The centre pin wouldn't accept the coax stranded wire, bloody hole too small. Reckon they are made for a solid wire. So dump those.
Does anyone know a source where I can get ones that work? So frustrating.
thanks Gary
