This is a better video showing installation of positive stop connectors without special tools. Using only the supplied tools shipped with the connector.

You MUST use the connectors specified for AVA5 cable. Positive stop connectors are the only way to go. Easier to install than any others.

Hello,

I am running 175’ of Andrew 7/8 Heliax (AVA5-50) from my shack to the base
of my new crank-up tower.  This is my first experience with hardline.  (I
learned Andrew is now part of Commscope.)

I am confused about the 2 types of connectors Andrew makes for this coax.
What are the advantages or disadvantages of the “EZ Fit” versus the
“Positive Stop” connectors sold by Andrew?  They seem to be sold at the
same price.

All help would be greatly appreciated.

Wayne, KK6BT
