Not a reflection on Pete, but he brings up an interesting point..
Here on TT (and on other forums) there's thousands of posts about
installing coax connectors: how to do it, best way, brands of
connectors, tooling, etc.
Yet folks seem to have an aversion to installing other kinds of
connectors: optical fibers, D-sub, etc.
For myself, I don't install connectors any more. I buy cables with
connectors installed by others. Some are good, some are bad, but that's
the breaks.
Just an observation...
