Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Yes I checked them Muddy but they don't have tools, just wire (reasonable price/selection) sockets and pins. Anyway I've ordered the e-Bay one.

I remember the 2-5am shifts to make wire-wrap sdjustments on backplanes of the rack cabinet gear at the Belrose Satellite station 15 years ago ... noisey,big klystron amplifiers going flat out next to us sitting or crawling into adjacent racks . teflon covered wire ,,special strippers, special wire wrap tools with individual spindles. special small sharp diagonal cutters.

because of the outage window,it was hell ... many times we had to come back again ..

Oh, to be retired and mow grass --
