Stop using compression fittings on aerial drops in cold weather

I was in upstate New York last December fixing a line that kept losing signal after every freeze. Swapped out the compression connector for a heat-shrink weatherproof type and the problem vanished completely. The compression ones just can't handle the ice expansion inside the connector body. Anyone else had better luck with shrink-fit on exposed lines?
