Cable connector tool

Can anyone recommend a F- connector tool for use when hooking up cable coax at the campground? I have trouble getting my fat fingers around the nut to properly tighten.I use slip-on connectors now but I think there is signal leakage with them. Thanks

    On second thought, you are correct. It would work for crimped connectors but not for compression type, which is most common now.
