Topband: Critters Eating Coax

Hmmm...we do the same thing here in Greenwood Lake, NY.  My both my runs of
213 for the 80/160 dipoles lay on the ground along side the pile of black
oil sunflower seeds we feed to our Cardinals (and a dozen or so sqirrels and
a couple of chipmunks).   Given a choice between the coax and the seeds..the
squirrels go for the seed.

So I suspect there are two approaches...make the coax taste bad or make
something else taste better!

Hello fellow 160 guys,
The band is showing some life after a very noisy Summer. I have a wooded lot
and the squirrels aren't bothering any of my stuff. I have lots of RG-213
out there and no nibbles, now I set out oil Sunflower seeds every day and
maybe that distracts them from my coax. Just my 2 cents
I'll check the link mentioned in Bill's post.
