In the comments one person said this is not the tool for solder connections. Why not?

You can use it for other connectors that are solder. I just double check measurements after stripping the cable and before soldering center pin. I mainly use this tool on the Times EZ N type connectors which require no soldering.

Has anyone used this on 9913?

If the specifications for 9913 are close enough to LMR400, then it should work.

Will it strip RG-8 correctly if needed?

I have one and it only works on LMR-400 (Times Wire). It is slightly different than RG-8, but the biggest problem for amateur use is that it is designed for N connectors. It cuts the center conductor too short for a PL-259. It is perfect for LMR-400 and N connectors. DX Engineering has things you might like for RG-8. Give them a call into their tech line. The are great people and very knowledgable! Hope this helped!

Does it work with lmr 400 ultra flex?

It woks great with regular LMR400, as for ultra flex, I don't know. However, last evening I was installing a new repeater and had to use some cable expert coax that was similar to LMR400 and it worked great. It is a great little tool and makes things so much easier than cutting and snipping. Hope this helped!!
