— Solder center conductor into notch in rear of contact with
.025–.032" diameter chisel-tip soldering iron.
— Solder should cover center conductor, but not extend over top of
notch in contact, or exceed contact diameter.
— Press ferrule against compression washer.
— Trim excess braid flush with outer diameter of compression washer
and ferrule.
— Assemble insulator over cable center conductor and dielectric.
— Trim cable per trim code below; tin end of center conductor.
