I have several coax switches that have the female UHF connectors (SO-239)
mounted right next to each other - in a cluster of 10 or 12
connectors/cables.

 

This makes it hard to insure each coax cable with a male UHF connector
(PL-259) is properly tight.

 

Do you know of a tool that is made (maybe a Craftsmen automotive tool?) that
would allow an extended grab of the shell of a PL-259 that would insure
proper tight torque in a "tight" cluster of connectors?

 

Thanks and 73,

Tim K3LR
