Where to buy Compression F-Connectors

    Decided to tidy up my satellite wiring and am looking for some compression f-connectors to give reliable signal, water-resistance and professional appearance.

    I have a mix of CT-100 and CT-125 satellite grade cable in use.

    Anyone know where I can get quality connectors in suitable sizes and a decent compression tool?

    I've seen Watty mention PCT connectors in other threads but couldn't find any online suppliers.

    Thanks
    Owen

    In some cases a brand of fitting need the tool from the maker.

    In all cases you need a specialist tool. If the connector doesn't need a special tool, then its a poor quality F-Connector. Good F-connectors don't work with BNC crimp tools.

    Thanks for the replies so far.

    Good idea - will have a trawl though Amazon
    I'm not an installer so the trade route is out sadly - great site though.
    Thanks Watty, that's the kind of info I'm after.

    Are there any brands I should look out for or avoid?

    Most trade places will sell over the counter for money if you don't annoy them and know what you want.
