[NLRS] VHF low pass filters?

[Matt Burt]

Hello Kirk,

Sry to hear about the situation there. Many good ideas so far from the  
list but I can't help but chime in about the feedline and connectors  
on the TV side. In all cases I recommend the entire chain of coax for  
the video system including the jumpers be RG6 quad shield with  
compression style connectors. The CATV guys use this stuff for a good  
reason. I realize that it may be problematic to convince the neighbor  
to replace any of the stuff but it has been my experience that leaky  
connectors can be trouble. Good luck and pse let us know what happens.  
Home theater stuff can be good and bad. I have to remove power from my  
Onkyo receiver every time I operate HF at home.

73,

Matt
