BTW cables and wiring used in aircraft MUST be crimped. No soldering is

Same with the marine environment.
Absolutely not true as regards aircraft. Crimping is done in most cases
for expediency. I am not debating quality. I am saying that RF cables in
aircraft are still using soldered on center pins for BNC, TNC, C, HN, N,
connectors across the board on military aircraft in the United States, and
also with many General Aviation aircraft. I have no experience with
commercial carriers, so I will leave that to someone else to comment on.
