[AMPS] HV Connectors

[markeh@erols.com (Mark Hall)]

Maybe it's not recommended, but I use silver plated double shielded RG-9
with SO-239/PL-259 connectors for inter unit HV.  As long as it stays
hooked up there is no safety problem.  Inside the enclosure I use this
pretty nice unshielded and flexible HV "probe" wire with a #18 heavily
stranded stranded center, and two layers of what looks like teflon
insulation.  This wire is about a quarter inch diameter.  Been there for
years at 4 KV.. zero problems.
