Years ago before we had Thermo pane glass and just one thin piece of glassin the window to "shoot through", I solved my problem the simple "no holes" way. I cut 4 pieces of aluminum foil, each 1 sq. ft., taped two of them on the inside of the window and two of them on the outside of the window. The side by side spacing was about one inch. Then I attached the openwire inside the house to the inside pair and outside the house to the outside pair. I used them as huge capacitors and shot through them no problem, running about 700w (input). Unfortunately that doesn't work anymore with modern windows. The gap is too wide. 73 Rick, DJ0IP |
