"The second item I am asking for design help on is the power cable to the
RF chassis. This will run about 6 feet from the under desk cabinet to
the top of the desk through a hole in the bench. It will be near my
knees so I dont want it to arc (5 Kv) to any part of my body.....#8-)
What should I use for transmission cable? What is a source for such cable?"
****** I bought some 30KV wire from RF Parts. I removed the shield from
LMR-400 coax and slid the high voltage wire inside the shielded wire. I
grounded the shield at the power supply box and the amplifier box. I
connected commercial grade grounding braid from station ground to both
boxes. Hope this gives you some ideas for your own setup.
