Best way to do pl259's yet!


Providing you use proper crimp tool and die,  No guessing if you made a good braid/ground connection.


However, it works best with RG8 size cable because RGX size being small doesn't have the same bite and can work loose.


I now use silver teflon crimp/solder N connectors and haven't had a connection failure yet.
