Sure you can reuse Andrew connectors and reinstalling them is quite easy.
For larger Heliax I had purchased a number of used connectors, cleaned them
up and installed them on my cable using the old cutoff section of cable that
was installed as a cutting guide.

Hello there,
I wondered if you might be able to advise.
I'm replacing a wind damaged tower with a stronger one, while trying to
save the 7/8 coax that I use for 6m, but I had a little incident this
morning, ended up making an ugly dent in the cable.
It's close enough to the end, so I can just trim it shorter, remove the
damaged piece, but I wondered... Can I remove the (positive stop 7/16 DIN,
female) connector from the end that I'm going to trim, and reinstall it?
Ionly have a few days before the tower people come to install the new
tower, and they would install the antenna, too, only if I were ready, so I
need this fixed asap, and waiting for anything ordered online would take at
least week now.
So if I only could, I'd rather reuse the one I already have... If that can
be cdone...
tia, jarek, va3ncd
