======================================
Have repaired many BNC's with similar damage by selecting a 1/4" 12 point
socket, with the proper outside diameter, and tapping it inside the
connector while the connector is still mounted. Rounds it out if the socket
is inserted with the 1/4" drive end to the outside facing you. Insulator and
pin are untouched. I feel that a 6 point socket doesn't have the interior
clearance to completely clear the insulator and may damage it.
