Someone spoke about crimpers and connectors from RF Industries. I've 
been on their web page and they have a very large selection of 
commercial grade connectors and Kits that come complete with the tool 
and die.  They also sell the crimping tool separately for $67.56 and a 
die for RG8, 213, 214, and a Belden coax that I did not record in my 
notes which one it was, anyway that die sells for $32.29.  They also 
sell a kit with the tool and about 6 different dies for $268.00

They have a very large selection of connectors and their UHF connector 
sells for 2.51 each.  I was also advised that if I went to one of their 
distributors the price should be a bit less than what they sell them for.

Hope this helps.
