I was wondering about the possibility or practicality of doing this
where a long run would exist from the shack to the antenna. Cost wise it
would be cheaper than hardline and should avoid some of the problems of
ladderline: rain, snow, ect. Would this work at vhf, uhf, or just hf?
Would this setup have the same losses as ladderline or somewhere between
that & coax? Has anyone tried using 4 lines for 50 ohms or the 2 line
100 ohm setup, if so were you using RG-8 or RG-58 size cable & how were
you terminating it? Thanks for your ideas.
