[QUOTE="archive10, post: 1052294"] Agree. I have several different makes; one is official PPC, one is Screwfix brand (ironforge or something). The PPC is of course the best, but also the most expensive. [URL="https://www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/f-connectors-what-type-you-fancy.163632/post-909266"]F-connectors: What type you fancy?[/URL] The trick is to rotate the tool just enough times, and not overdo it. In many cases, If I clamp together to hard initially, or rotate too many tmies, the tool will cut away the braided shielding too (you need to fold this back for the metal sleeve of the compression tool to penetrate between the braid and the inner insulator. Adjustment of the blades dependon whether you use double, triple, or quad-shielded, and also what make and model I use. Some tools are for specific cables, and some are fully adjustable (but need full adjustment!). [/QUOTE]
