Re: [TowerTalk] Introduction

As KK9A mentioned, the surplus market for 7/8" and larger coax will be 
gradually drying up in the future. Virtually all new cell site builds 
are utilizing tower top radios connected via fiber. 1/2" is still used 
and will continue to be used for jumpers between the radios and 
antennas, although we also are currently using "Air" antennas which have 
the radios built in.
Since the cell market has been the major source of well priced surplus 
Heliax style cable...get it while you can.
