Many thanks for all the comments about wet "450 ohm" ladder line.
There is no doubt in my mind about open wire line being the better choice, and I would normally use it. But in this particular application there is the risk of open wire line being damaged by or ensnarled in a fairly dense growth of small trees while hoisting the antenna. The feeder run is about 300ft between the antenna and my remote antenna select switch box. Further thought required. 73, Geoff GM4ESD ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
