Barrie,
Look out for a cable guy parked up someplace, he will put a couple of
compression fittings on 2 minutes for just a thank you.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] RG-6
Well, I wish to thank all you fellows for your help with the "bum" RG-6.
This cable is being used for a K9AY loop. I used a screw-on PL-259 at the
antenna junction box, which, after being slathered with RTV, appears to be
working FB.
At the shack end, I'm using an RCA connector (which I cannot solder to).
The reason for the RCA connector is that I'm using a RIP-1, which uses those
connectors.
I think the easy way out would be to ditch the RIP-1 and go with a
conventional TR relay. That way, I can use another screw-on PL-259.
Thanks again, guys.
73, Barrie, W7ALW
