Tim,
Good information, but I was thinking of a way for "Mr. Average DXer" to get
a connection, that is not adding noise, from his on site receiving antenna.

I think that is called "a remote receiver connected by optical fiber
networking". Several folks use this technology on topband. Sometimes the
remote receiver is the other side of the world.

I am now using twisted pair on my receiving Delta antenna and is less
noise than the coax.

Question: Any one ever tried using light fibers as a near ultimate
transmission line from their receiving antennas?
