If the lead is totally portable...
i.e. not threaded through a hole in the wall or window frame then I suggest
asking one of the local Security or Satellite installers if they could
crimp
it on for you. A bit inconvienient I know, but they would at least have the
proper tooling.

It needs a lot of compression to properly crimp those connectors and even
if
you found a "cheap" tool it may not do a very good job of the
crimping.
