Jim makes a valid point. I had considerable trouble with my 2800's (2
of them) using rg58 for the pulse circuits. My longer run is only about
300 feet and buried except vertical up the towers. . Changing to the
stuff sold by The RF Connection (2 #12 and a twisted pair in a shield)
and letting the rotor end of the shield float has been trouble free for
about 5 years now. If I generate rfi I don't hear it on the radio.
If you decide to use "house wire" for the motor circuit be sure to buy
