Default Dittel radio Q

Ken,



Ditto what Colin Lamb said in another response. Use good crimp
connectors. Don't come within 10 nautical miles of the screw on type
connectors. They are for emergency use only (which is what you will
have eventually if you use them). If you have a little room, you can
make a gentle bend - 1 to 2 inch radius in the cable to get it going in
the correct direction in the tray. If it is subject to movement and
vibration then secure it to something solid using tywraps. And you can
also add multiple layers of heat shrink tubing of increasing lengths to
the necessary area to provide stress relief if it cannot be secured for
some mounting reason.



Regards,



Larry
