CHANGE FROM MICROAIR TO TRIG VHF COMM

[Geoff_H]

In the 70's when I was starting out in computer control systems we had many plug system faults. We discovered that any connection where the stress at the connection was less than 30,000psi would get oxidation at the connection and develop a high resistance. Long term reliability was achieved with edge design point of contact and gold plating. Today crimping uses galvanic bond and the removable connections are a sophisticated design. I would not trust doing the plug connector nor the pin connection myself. I would never solder. I have learnt through experience!
