Switched from crimp connectors to compression fittings on a job last month. Night and day difference.
I was working on a new build in Raleigh, pretty standard stuff. I always used crimp connectors for coax, never had major problems. But a senior guy I work with finally talked me into trying compression fittings on a tricky run through a tight crawlspace. The fit was way more solid, no signal loss. I think I'm a convert now. Has anyone else found one type holds up better over time?

Wait are compression fittings actually that much better for tight spaces? I always figured crimp was fine but now you got me second guessing my whole setup lol.

Did you ever try getting a crimper behind a fridge? Changed my mind real quick.

Did you hear about my buddy who nearly flooded his whole kitchen trying to cram a crimper behind a fridge?
