Has anyone any experience of this type of SO239 crimp connector?
SO239 Crimp Type Plug (6mm) (For RG58) - https://www.nevadaradio.co.uk/so239-crimp-type-plug-6mm-for-rg58
All the YouTube instruction videos are for the type where the coax core is soldered to a centre pin and inserted, and a ferrule then shoved up and crimped. The above type has no centre pin.
I have a suspicion that the coax core goes through the small hole in the closed end of the little cylinder and that it is then shoved, open end first all the way to the front of the plug. I've no idea how the coax core is secured (solder or not?) or how much is fed through the hole.
The supplier has promised instructions but are not being quick about it.
