Hi All,
Has anyone used 1/2” PEX tubing (normally used for plumbing) as a spacer for
open-wire line or fan-dipoles? (PEX is cross-linked polyethylene.)
It is cheap in 5’ lengths, easy to work, and passes the microwave oven test, so
it isn’t conductive. (The white stuff that I have microwave tested is not UV
resistant, so there is a question about how long it will last outside.)
As it is very light weight and seems to be fairly rigid, it looks like a good
candidate for this purpose. Any experience with this stuff out there?
