Perhaps the .128" size is defined by the o.d. of the center pin which
naturally is larger than the center conductor?

Mark, Ctr. conductor size for 9913 and 9913F7 is .108", so spec'g the .116
die makes sense. however, my crimper source indicates that their .128" is
the one to use for 9913. This may not be as odd as it sounds because the
Belden spec can vary to +- .010, and I doubt it is on the minus side. At
any rate, I am checking with a reliable source on Monday to see if the .128
will do the job well, I suspect so as my mfr. source for the crimper and die
is a very good one. Will advise on Mon.
