Two chokes with a rod in between is a great move, but you need at least 14 turns to get the choke resonance down to 160M, and more turns is better. Yes, it's OK to stack cores, but you still need a l

No, but I picked up a partial spool of some 75 ohm mini made by Belden at a Chicago hamfest several years ago. It has a custom part number, not a standard one. Check the online Belden catalog. I agre

I have recently replaced some "RG-6" in use for maybe seven or eight years. I opened it up to see what was happening. The degree of oxidation on the inside and outside of the foil was perplexing. One

RG-6 is a type of copper shield cable rarely seen, but same-size CATV and MATV cables are commonly called RG-6. Any radiation through shields of typical "F-6" CATV or MATV drop cables, and actually

Use flooded cable outside. CATV F-6 or F59 cables are great for 160, or any HF band use. I use ten's of thousands of feet of the stuff, much of which has been installed in the early 2000's. My trunk

RG-178 is the Teflon 50 Ohm equivalent of RG-174 and RG-179 is a 75 Ohm version. I have several thousand feet of RG-179 available I can cut to length pretty cheap. Carl KM1H _________________________

Sorry. My mistake. I thought the subject was receiving cables, related to Beverages, and common mode noise, and that somehow a parallel was drawn to a stb measurement on LMR400, which was a "needles

Does there always need to be electrical continuity between the various shields along the length of coax? I don't think so. According to https://awapps.commscope.com/catalog/broadband/product_details.
