I have always been told by the ex Air Force people that crimps were the only method for any high vibration cabling. Something along the line of changing the temper and also creating a stiff spot in the wire that could not allow the wire to flex and this would be where the wire would break. Of course, sitting on the bench this would not apply, but may apply in mobile use or some portable applications? Anyway, if you were in an airplane, you may want to check for proper methods.
My two cents for what it's worth. Werner N8BB _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
