Hi Richard!
As a rookie, I am always on the lookout to make this part of the hobby quicker,
easier and more efficient. However, I've gone to the DX-Engineering site and
[from your description] could not find the round brass dealie you spoke of.
Can you kindly "...educate me" as to where I might find it?
Many thanks!

Last Summer we had a thread discussing the merits of those coax
connector installation tools sold by DX-Engineering... you know... the
round brass dealies that help you push the connectors onto the coax.
I asked a serious question as to their real utility... and some kind soul
with arthritis politely said, well... yes, actually they are quite helpful.
Well... since then, I have been making patch cables and antenna cables
out of much heavier coax cable than I formerly used.... and well... I now
realize just how useful they really are ! Not that I doubted his answer,
but now I have experience to go along with his advice.
So -- I hereby RE-THANK the fellow who took a moment to so
kindly educate me. Now... I more than understand, ... I feel it.
Happy trails to all.
