I just learned about monoprice.com. AWESOME site to buy home theater stuff..

However, they don't appear to sell tools..

Where can I buy the compression tool (not just 'crimp') for F-connectors (the ones on antennas) for a price that's not overinflated?
 
I cant find it on the site, but I got one of these at homedepot. I cant remember exactly but I'm pretty sure it was under $20. Possibly $10, and then the price of connectors. Have used it many times without any problems.

Edit: seems to have gone up in price since I got it. Cheaper: http://www.techtoolsupply.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=2085


Connectors it supports (most): http://www.techtoolsupply.com/manuals/comp_chart.pdf. It does not support the F-Conn "Wall plate system" that you can get from Parts Express.

Connectors I use (for regular RG6 - there are different ones for quad shield RG6, or plenum, or RG59 or RG11): http://www.techtoolsupply.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=236
