Hi everyone,

First off, I want to thank everyone for all the great
suggestions and comments I've received with previous
questions. Ok, here's another for you. I'm getting
ready for various antenna projects and tower work this
Spring/Summer, I need to know what to look for a how
to check my soldering job on PL-259's...I have a
multi-meter and want to be able to check to make sure
I have things the way they are supposed to be. I know
I probably should know this already, but I've pretty
much always had someone  
else do it for me, and I want and NEED to do it myself
now. I've found several tutorials on soldering
PL-259's and think I  pretty much know how to do that
now and have done a few jobs that seem to work. I now
need to know how to check and make sure I don't have a
short or whatever, and alot of the local hams seem to
really have different ideas on how to do that. So, I
thought I'd check with all you guru's out there. 
So,HELP, Please!

Thanks in advance,
Daniel N9WX
