I spent a couple of hours tracing my coax and replacing my antenna. I found
a worn out spot along the coax where I had tie-wrapped it to my fence. The
outer shield was worn through and the braid was worn and only making contact
through a few threads. I'm sure that water got inside the coax. Swapped
out the antenna with a new one I had handy. I replaced the coax and will
cut out the bad section and make two shorter lengths.
Needless to say, I believe that I've rectified the technical difficulties of
last week's class and we are ready for Monday night. Hope to see you there.
