[TowerTalk] How to solder aluminum braid coax cable ?

[XV4Y (Yan)]

Thanks Jim, Bill and Roger for your time.

I think they're using N compression connectors and I would be able to find them in Saigon.
I already have the BNC ones I'm using sometime for the RG-6.
However, using the same word I learn before of this reflector : I am a cheapskate. 
As it is just for a short run using low power on HF, I will do the mix of crimping and soldering I have done before that seems to do the job. 
Thanks for the advice.

73,
Yan.
