Doesn't everyone have a bin full of these? "I'll get to this sometime"

Colleagues,

Thanks all for discussion and good advice on co-ax connectors.

I have some old (at least 50 yrs) silver-plated PL-259 connectors that 
presumably are good quality.

The problem is that they are properly and solidly soldered to co-ax.

Has anyone had success at desoldering PL-259 connectors and removing the 
co-ax.? If so, any guidance on how to do this would be appreciated.  (I do not 
have professional de-soldering tools - just the basics.)

David, VA3IIF
