Hello from K2 #4206 (Mike WB9GZL) with an OT
question for the sat/cable/over-the-air-TV gurus. Springtime in Wisconsin for
me involves trying new antennas
for my K2. This past winter I was given a new
500-foot reel of RG6 dual coax w/messenger.
Impedance:
75+/-3 Ohm
18 ga solid
cu centers
aluminum foil
+ 60% al braid
My
extensive searching has not uncovered any transmitting applications for this
coax. Would you have an opinion if it could be used (with an appropriate balun
at the TX, for example) as "twin-lead" feedline for balanced antennas such as
an all-band doublet or
perhaps an antenna with more variable characteristics such as a large loop?
Thanks for
any help you can provide, and for making this reflector an outstanding source
of collective wisdom. Best regards from Mike WB9GZL.
