Subject: | Re: Deutsch, the big brother of Dsub |
I appreciate all the info and links you two have put in here. I've used
them before and like them too. The hard part is always digging up
all the info when I need it. so I'm saving your posts for future
reference. I know when I first ordered them it took a while to figure
out all the compatible parts i wanted.
Thanks again!
Tim

For good quality, inexpensive crimp tooling, look for the tools made by Iwiss (often sold under the iCrimp brand).
