Hi Tom:

I used the K3LR method on my Stepp-IR installation. I like it for the 
reasons stated, plus these; I am sure I have the ground connection soldered 
beyond any doubt and is as strong as any solder job can be. By taping it 
when warm, it's water tight. Then I usually add liquid tape to boot. When 
I'm done, my hands don't ache. 73, Jim W0NB
