[TowerTalk] Tool for F-connector holes

[Grant Saviers]

You will be stunned, not shocked by the price, if you can find one.

4 hole F females ala S0239 are available but pricey (Amphenol, $7.15), 
although about 1/40 the price of the punch if it is priced like other D 
punches.  For receive antenna chokes, xformers, circuits, etc it is what 
works for me with plastic boxes.

If there is a China source it would be great to know about it.
