Question and comment...
I've got a TS22 that has a hiss and crackle for no good reason. I.E. when I connect my TS44 to the CCT everything sounds good. Any reason for this? The cordset on the TS22 is a little on the tired side. Same problem manifests when using the bed of nails or direct to copper sections of the clips.
Matt, I just started in this business a year or so ago, so I feel your pain. My advice, get a pair of scissors. Sounds a little strange I know, but they have special "electricians" scissors you can get at any electrical supply house, or even in the LVW section of Home Depot. They are the BEST tool for line dressing as they have stripping notches, cut through most wire like butter, make really accurate trim cuts, and virtually replace a pair of dykes for things like cable ties, etc.
Good thread. Thanks guys.
