Thanks Larry... while reviewing my options I came across a "coaxial" antenna I can construct from RG8X (or larger, but heavier) and if I could use the 8x on down to the shack it would be much easier. I'm sure the 8x will withstand the wattage, but I don't want to have as much loss in it as I do with the vertical I am trying to replace.

I appreciate your comments.

Rick

run 100 watts...75,
