RG6 radial style crimp tool suggestions?

[gopherhockey]

I would like to switch from the typical "crush the cable ends" type RG6 crimper to the radial style, such as the Digicon 360 crimper.

This one look like it only works with digicon ends, however.

What I want is a good all around radial crimper that will be the most flexible with ends - or a web site that someone might suggest to purchase this equipment.

I have found a few - sometimes they have two radial style crimpers listed that both do RG6 so I'm concerned that I'd be getting the right equipment.

I personally use the paladin crimper and I have YET to have a failure, I use this inside and out. I can tell you having tried a variety of tools this is ma favorite. It is cost me 50 bucks and then another 50 for a bag of 100 connectors from my local electrical supply house, but as I have said I have had zero failures and that alone is worth the money to me.

I justified it by having 3 TV's with satellite and 2 of them are DirecTiVo so as you may imagine I have a few runs into the house! I also used it on my OTA Antenna and love it.

Forget the crimp style and just go with Compression fittings!
