Why use Heliax?  'Cause we can!  hehehe
(In my case, I have someone else footing the bill, and they have SPOOLS of Heliax available, so...) 
Just another observation regarding my use of the power I mentioned: I have an area where even mobile coverage is poor, and the extra power has allowed me to obtain better coverage in the area in question.  BTW - this region is only about 15 miles WNW from the tower... 
Everyone, please don't worry about offending me - I'm always willing to learn!  Besides, I'm enjoying this thread!

We could all probably save a lot of money by using RG142 or RG214
going up the tower. Why does anyone use Heliax anyway?? Just a
thought...

Chuck, I suspect that many users may not notice a 6db drop. But some
will. It'll depend on where they operate within the coverage area.
And just because some don't, doesn't mean that I will not be on a
constant mission to make and keep any repeater that I take care of the
best, RF-wise, that I can.
