Better get busy constructing some heavy duty open wire feeders while you
are at to feed your antenna. I am thinking 8 gauge stranded would work
great, say, with 3 to 4 inch spacing.

Thanks !!  My shack is in a basement room and stays around 60 degrees  
even in the summer. I usually run a 1500 watt space heater.   
Hummmmm.... maybe three 5000s would totally replace the space heater.   
Problem is I only have a single SB-220 transformer.
