I have tried various configurations for a rotator coax loop, ranging
from a 10ft length of coax hanging in a single loop from the boom, to
rg58 wound fairly tight around the mast. It seems the optimum would be
to drop the coax as close in to the mast as possible to reduce the
turning radius, but far enough out to avoid snagging. Does anyone have
any hints or clever suggestions?
