I'm curious why builders would still solder PL-259 connectors when crimp connectors are stronger and make a better connection?  A crimp connector is not much more cost wise and the price of a hex crimp tool is not a lot of money.

I have a few crimp tools with different dies for different cable sizes.  If anyone wants to borrow a set, let me know.
