[Antennas] 93 ohm coax

[Chris Boone]

Could be used in phasing or matching 1/4wl lines...when used in Twin Ax
mode, no, the Z remains the same as a balanced rather than unbalanced
line..NOWEVER, in paralleled equal length lines tied together, they do 1/2
the Z of the line (such as tying two resistors in parallel)...so it would be
~ 46ohms or so..

I find myself with a spool of maybe a couple hundred
feet of 8,  93 ohm coaxes bundled in a plastic jacket.
I found I could pretty easily split back the jacket.
This is leftover from some telecom job. The 93 ohm
is used to interconnect telecom equipment. It proves
hard to send excess material back upstream, the 
system is just not set up for it. Is there any earthly
use I can put the coax to, or should it just go in the
scrap metal bin?

Also, when using 2 coaxes to create twinax 
equivalent, how do the discrete impedances of
the 2 coaxes add?  Tnx-  Hue Miller
