[Elecraft] bad choice: Anderson PowePole connectors

My experience is quite opposite from what has been mentioned.

I've had multiple failures of the Molex connector.  The only APP failure I
had was crib death of a cable made with the "plier" type crimper.  Jump
kit includes the ratchet crimper and a couple bags of spare assemblies.  I
also carry spare fuses of all the sizes used in my RigRunners.

Finally, I'm replacing the Molex connector on the back of my IC706 with a
set of APPs because of my problems and the fact that mount for the Molex
on the radio has failed and the connector is now hanging loose.
