Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Pulling 1/4" coax? To minimize the chance of a
problem, use the old coax pull a rope through, and then use a cable pulling
grip with some wire pulling lubricant on the new coax to help get around the
turns.If you are feeling lucky and the old coax moves freely in the existing
conduit, you might get away with just the tape, but cable pulling lube would be
cheap insurance there too.de KM1P

towertalk@contesting comSubject: [TowerTalk] Pulling 1/4" coax?I need to pull
about 15' of RG58 through some 1 1/4" aluminum tubing. There are a few turns
instead of a straight run.There is an existing coax already inside which I am
replacing. I have about a 4" pigtail of the old coax sticking out.Should I
tape the new coax to the old and use the old coax to pull it through or should
I use the old coax to pull a pull rope through? Or something
else?Ideas??73,Gary
