While I agree that most hams are cheap, I do not believe
it makes any economic sense when it comes to connectors.

Risking the finals of your $400 radio, in order to save
$1.30 per connector (for at total savings of just under
$6 in a typical feedline) makes no money sense at all.

Penny wise and pound foolish.
