Oops. Error on my part. I have the Ideal stuff, not T&B.

I haven't seen the T&B stuff at my local Home Depot, but they had  
Ideal and Data Shark oompression connectors and tools.  I believe  
they are all interchangeable, although I doubt if anyone other than  
Thomas & Betts makes the BNC versions (which you probably couldn't  
find at Home Depot anyway).  The compression type is much better than  
crimp.
