Hi Patrick

Don't think I'd cut them in half.

I'd just cut the plugs off and replace them and check the cable again. Might be something in the plugs that are bad and you would be wasting a bunch of cable.

If still bed, then start cutting them.  73

I'm going to cut the bad jumper in half and test the halves and then cut the bad piece in half and test those pieces. Whichever is bad will then be dissected carefully to see, if possible, what was physically wrong with the coax. This is a real head scratcher for me. The good news is I'm back on the air with a pan adapter full of signals again and loving it.
