Dennis, Even though I have never used AC twin, I would be concerned for the noise issue. The directional issue may not be there as you are separating the lead-in with the antenna with a matching transformer. I could easily buy some speaker wire and try it, but I would have to put in a bit of impedience matching. There might be some loss there. Burying the AC twin may be an issue too. As I direct bury the waterproof RG6 right in the ground.
73, Patrick P.S. For the record, I have taken the R8 right out to the antenna, bypassing the coax to compare s meter readings. I did it last Summer. I got the same meter readings, so the loss of .5 DB with the RG6 is so small you can't even see it on the s meter. _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
