After the soldering procedure has been completed and the wire end is still hot. pull the connector gently back off the wire end and this will give you a nice neat wire end and avoids the wire being splayed out. If desired keep the connector on the end of the wire but pull it back so that only half the connector is used, this leaves the other half to insert what ever wire you want to join to the litz. G3KEV
