[Antennas] crimp connections

[Tom Horton]

Hi John,
 Finally with the help of a bunch of super guys I got my quad up and working!
 Guess what we crimped the wires together with butt splices. 
It's a great big gamble and of course a scientific experimment all at the same time.

OK,I guess I am finally in the 21st century.I just crimped about 6 pl-259 crimp-on's.This was on some lmr-400.I have always soldered but on the lmr it was tough.I understand from all that crimping is fine.very few failures.What about the center cond.Is crimping ok or should it be soldered ? Thanks,john
