Hi -

Just curious: Do you know of any (reasonably priced) vendor that
offers 9913 conveniently made up in standard lengths, with connectors?
(CPX1318 is available in that form.)

73, Ed

The Wireman (see website), stocks no pre-made cables, but will make up
a custom cable of any type, any connector, any length -- just call
'em.

WHAT is a Standard Length?

And, do you want to trust factory installed cheap connectors?

Even if coax comes with connectors, I take those off and install my
own, so I know it was done right and will last.

Well, the average ham with a mighty 40-watt soldering iron and rusty
pliers isn't going to do much better. At least the minimum wage guys
are probably making cables with good tools -- 120-watt or better
Weller irons with 1/2" tips, etcetera...

I spend just about eight hours a day lately at a factory where cables
and other stuff are made. Every day when I walk through the
cable-making section, I think to myself "wow, I wish I could use those
tools for my own nefarious purposes". The tools are expensive and
pretty high-quality, but the employees see them as just... tools.

Speaking of tips . . here's one. I've never been happy with any of the
Weller irons, not even the clunky big 300W versions when it comes to
"doing" PL-259s. Turns out that Sears has a very light and compact
transformerless pistol type "instant heat" 400/150 watt iron which I
bought for $59.95 about a year and a half ago. Does a great job on
connectors and heavy antenna wire.
