[TenTec] OT 75 Ohm twin feeder

[Fraser Robertson]

Hi Steve et al.  Some years ago I put up horizontal parallel dipoles for 20/15/10m and wanted to feed them with heavy duty 75R twin feeder to avoid the weight of a centre balun and coax.  Westlake no longer stocked HD 75R twin but said their black/red DC power cable worked as a substitute.  I found this did indeed work ok, with a balun at the bottom end, except whenever it rained the swr shot up.  Question: does rain have a similar effect on 'proper' 75R twin.73 Fraser G4BJM
