Default Re: Removing curly cord from receiver

My old mentor told me that "81s" were distinct from "pliers wiring" as 81's had a cutting blade in the middle and were favoured on jumperframes as you only needed one tool . 81's could cut the jumper wire , strip it and terminate. However, as said, pliers wiring took over and all long nosed pliers from then on took the name 81's, with the mini version(designed to be used on PCB)getting the nickname ( in my area and possibly others)as 41's
