Looking at the pictures gives me a couple of ideas. first is that the person who cut the heliax must be really dense to think he could get away with it. All one needs to do is trace that other coax to wherever. Plus it might be possible to lift fingerprints from the heliax. Second, looks like the Heliax could be spliced back together with proper connector(s), but would be a job and a bit of a bump in loss? I actually have a question here about loss. What would be the loss in one male and one female 7/8" N connector for Heliax? My thought is with the idea of possibly moving my antenna in the future, if I can eventually manage a taller tower. I see all kinds of loss calculators for cables themselves, but no mentions of same for assorted connectors. YMMV
