Hello all,
Years ago, I would solder cables to the hangers with an ordinary soldering iron, lead solder and flux. This enables an easy cable change utilizing the same connectors and minimal disassembly. It was very durable. I have been trying to duplicate this recently but have been able to determine the correct flux. I would appreciate anyone with this secret sauce please let me know. I will post the solution that works.
Cheers,
