Hi Cathy:


That sounds like a great idea. We don't even need a box, because there is an 
elevator enclosure already there on the roof and then a short run to the 
antenna.


With kind regards,


Jeff

One option would be to put the amp in a weatherproof box at the antenna.
That way any losses occur in the path from the exciter to the amp, and
with reasonable exciter power you can drive the amp to its limit.

 I have a 70 meter run of coax and the best I can find in Mali is LMR
 305, so losses have to be over 10 dB. I think I'm
 looking for something a bit more powerful but will keep this
 in mind as a possibility.
