1. [TowerTalk] Coax loop (score: 1): Author: "Junior" <charlesw_anders@bellsouth.net>; Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 18:06:45 -0500; I hope to have the beam on the tower tomorrow. How much of a loop in the coax below the boom should I leave and is it best to secure the coax to the boom for a certain distance from the so-239 back t; /archives//html/Towertalk/2007-07/msg00684.html (9,022 bytes)

What is the purpose of this loop? You are not talking about a loop to let the mast turn I take it??

It's unclear what loop you're talking about. If it's the rotator loop, then it should be taped to the mast along several inches (minimum), and then taped again to; /archives//html/Towertalk/2007-07/msg00686.html (10,177 bytes)

I am talking about the coax from the rig to the antenna not the rotator cable. The coax will go through the 3 coax arms up to the boom. So just secure the coax back along the boom and le; /archives//html/Towertalk/2007-07/msg00690.html (11,192 bytes)

So just secure the coax back along the boom and leave some slack in it and secure it at the top coax arm?

If there is more than one antenna on the mast, you almost have to tape the cables to the mast below the bottom antenna, bef; /archives//html/Towertalk/2007-07/msg00765.html (10,512 bytes)
