[Elecraft] Anderson Power Poles?

[K4IA at aol.com]

After watching the PP connectors on my K3 wiggle around at Field  Day, I 
have to question again why Elecraft chose these toads-in-a-tuxedo for a  
connector.  PP are way over-rated.  The only strain relief they  provide is when 
they come apart - which is often.  I suppose we could  call that defect an 
undocumented "feature."   A simple molex  would have been fine and a whole 
lot more secure.   
 
But not to start a flame war over PPs, I'll stay positive.  Anyone  have 
any ideas on how to better secure the PP in the K3?  Mine wiggles and  I am 
thinking about some hot glue.

I just  squirt a bit of hotmelt glue in the hole once I've assembled them.
