[TowerTalk] Tool for F-connector holes

[Steve Bookout]

Another option.

Use your typical F chassis mount connectors, but get good quality 
replacement nuts for use with them.  This is what Joel at the RF 
Connection does for me.  They can be snugged up without falling apart.

And, to help with the slipping and sealing (and MANY other things) find 
some Hardman brand 'double bubble', very high peel strength urethane.  
It is in the orange, dual part package.  It doesn't get hard and brittle 
like regular epoxy.  Although it does seem hard, it is just a bit 
flexible.  If things are clean when you use it, it is next to impossible 
to remove.

Not the cheapest thing out there, but you can find it at reasonable 
prices if you shop around.  Seems like I can never find the best price 
at the same place, twice.
