[Antennas] long wire antenna - can you use coax to get outside house?

[Joe Falcone]

I was wondering if you guys could give me your thoughts on the =
following: =20

I want to run a long wire direct from the tuner.  I also wanted to run a =
counterpoise from the tuner.  Would it be a bad idea to run them =
together until I got out of the house?  Would I be better off to use =
coax, to get out of the house, and just use the center conductor as part =
of the long wire?  Could I then run the counterpoise next to it?  If I =
did that, do I count the coax as part of the length of the wire? =20

Or should I use the shield of the coax as part of the counterpoise until =
I got out of the house.  The coax would be about 15 feet.=20

Thanks Joe.=20
