[Elecraft] More Power Pole. .

[Stephen Prior]

Good idea, I've found that the roll pins fall out some times, in fact I've
stopped using them for that reason.  Q-tips sound a far better and cheaper
idea.

Never ever had a problem with powerpoles, including their use in a Land
Rover.  Just make sure you hear the click as the pin goes into the
housing.  Tried crimping, went back to soldering...
