[TowerTalk] Cable assemblies

[Mac]

Locally at least here in Central Texas while there are many, i use Midco 
Sling, as has been said take your cable/s in and pick up later or next 
day. They will also 'proof' test it, meaning after it is assembled they 
grasp the cable and the 'end' and do a tug test to be sure it is crimped 
and holds to a multiple of some factor 2-3 times rated factor.

What has not been said is don't just go ripping the cable out of your 
tower and "think" you can put it back together again.  Use some pull or 
guide rope and hook it to the cable/s and let it follow the real cable 
out, thus when you put the new replacement cable back in, it is in the 
place and correct.

Should be a no brainer. and best of all very reasonable cost, you will 
be near shocked at this price V. UST or others from the manufacture.

I'd suggest google : wire rope your town or area. and get after it
