Where I work I am privy to lots and lots of used 30-40 foot power cords from
defunct equipment. Most of them are 2-wire with some 3-wire cords thrown
in. These would make great wire for radials.
I was wondering, If I leave the 2 (or 3) wires inside the jacket, twist one
end, hook it to the coax shield, and leave the other end open, will this
look like 2 radials or just 1 thick wire. Some of the wires are twisted
inside the insulation. Seems like the twisted wires would be a 'gimmick'
capacitor.
It would save a lot of stripping to have to get the outside jacket off to
get to the 2 wires inside. 73
