so i'm running the coax for my cb antenna and i'm looking at that huge plug on the radio end thinking -- dag, that's a really big hole i'm going to have to cut in my firewall/underbody somewhere...that sucks. if i cut the connector off of the coax, it would be MUCH easier to fish that through an existing hole in the body (like where the rear a.b.s. cables used to be). but then i have a wire without a tip.
i assume that if i go to the local cb guy i can get another tip, but how complicated is it to get it put back on right? do you have to soder or is it just a twist/crimp on like television coax? will cutting and reattaching the connector have a detrimental effect on my signal?
TIA
