Is the twinlead used in the antenna, and is it part of the antenna or just
acting as a feedline? What should be done with a shield used as an antenna
is much different than with a shield used for a feedline.

I am in the process of building a Waller Flag -
I am going to use Twinax - the Twinax I have purchased has a braiding
screen similar to coax.
What do I connect if anything the coax type screening to?
Do I leave it floating or connect it to one of the inner two wires.
Sorry if its a sill question but I have never used Twinax before and the
construction details explain that Twinax is the best choice for the
phasing and connection to the two loops being the most durable in respect
of weather and UV. Dave g3rcq
