Hi Bill,

The center conductor was broken and intermittent in the middle of the 8 Ft Jumper. We replaced it with a piece of 213 with stranded center conductor. It should do fine now. I don't know what the heck I was thinking when I did that. In the process we also discovered a badly burned PL-259 and the SO-239 on my antenna switch. Got that fixed.
