I ended up getting the Klein Compression Tool although it appears that the Klein connectors are about the only ones that work well with the tool. With all that, I've been happy with it and prefer it to the old crimping method although I thought I had mastered that too.
Apples and potatoes.. Though I admit when I first read the OP's message I was thinking the same thing as you.
He is talking not about putting the F-Connector on the end of the prepared cable (BY the way I use compression connectors way better than crimp ons)
But screwing the male connector onto the female one.
I still have enough flexibility to get it started but use a 7/16"/11mM wrench to finish the job more often than not.
I like some of teh toold linke to here.
Thanks...I realized this after the Pic was posted. Oh well, I tend to use the wrench method to but I will add, the compression fitting does allow easier turning then the crimp.
