I am considering taking the plunge and buying my first crimp tool to
install coax connectors. Currently I solder all of my connectors, but
this is a slow process and from what I have read crimp connections are
now just as good, if not better.
I normally use LMR400, RG8, or RG8X cable, and I will be installing
PL-259's and N connectors.
Can you recommend a good set of affordable crimpers? If you were buying
a set for your station, what would you buy?
Thanks,
