Topband: Light fiber question

[Bruce]

 Tim,
 Good information, but I was thinking of a way for "Mr. Average DXer" to get
 a connection, that is not adding noise, from his on site receiving antenna.

I think that is called "a remote receiver connected by optical fiber
networking". Several folks use this technology on topband. Sometimes the
remote receiver is the other side of the world.

 I am now using twisted pair on my receiving Delta antenna and is less
 noise than the coax.

 Question: Any one ever tried using light fibers as a near ultimate
 transmission line from their receiving antennas?
