AHHH!!  Got ya.. Guess i should go to sleep, otherwise i would have probably 
caught that after a while.  See its a symbol thing, my brain saw and that 
and said, what is that?  Normally in schematics that originate from the USA 
you see the dotted line on each side indicating the coax shield with a solid 
line in the center.

Thanks for the info Phil!  This design looks intriguing to me.
