If you have the proper crimping tool for Anderson Power Pole connectors ( not the cheap $30 Pair but the $50 or more pair with ratchet locks) the crimped connection should not be soldered. Soldering the crimped pin results in solder wicking back up into the wire melting or damaging the insulation and causing the wire be very stiff at the point of entry in the Anderson pin. This could result in failure of the connection after some use.
If you don't have the proper crimping tool you must solder. 73, Dave KD1NA _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
