==== PSK header connectors ====

**
IMPORTANT NOTE !!!!!!\\
Some users seem to know better, and solder wires directly to the pins or the pc-board.!\\
That is totally unacceptable !!\\
Wires will easily break off, and cause a lot of damage in many cases.\\
So use connectors !!!!!\\
In order to ease making these cables, it is also possible to buy the necessary tool, to create the PSK cables.\\
The best wire to be used with PSK connectors is 0,25 mm².\\
This special plier will be sold for net price of € 20,00 if ordered together with complete kits. {{:mgv:hardware:crimpzange.jpg?200}}\\
