I'm putting in a Hi-Z Rx array for 160m and at the suggestion of Lee K7TJR
bought coax and F connectors at 3 Star, Inc http://www.3starinc.com/.
Purchased 1000' of flooded direct bury quad shield RG6 (F677TSEF) for $70 and
compression F connectors for $0.28 apiece (PPC EX6WS). Thought this might
be of value to others installing similar arrays. Hope to get this in by the
Stew. I have 77 worked on 160 on my inverted L in 2 years of Top Band
operating and I sure hope this gets me to 100 (and 9 band DXCC), maybe even
yet this season. :) Hope to pull Eugene RA0FF and others out of the noise
one morning--I can hear you are there, just not quite good enough to hear my
call. Good luck and Happy Holidays to all.
