[Boatanchors] CATV CABLE

[Magoo]

I use hardline for all my Beverage RX antennas and am about to use it for a 
run to a new phased TX array.  A 218.3 ft length of 70 ohm foam hardline 
should enable one to attach a 50 ohm antenna and feed 50 ohms at the other 
end to the station at 1.8 mhz.  For those who want only 80 to 10 meters I 
believe the length is about 113 ft.  These lengths apply only if the 
velocity factor of your cable is .81.  There are lots of good ideas for 
making connectors from articles in all the major ham magazines going back to 
the early 80s.
