Topband: Speking of Hardline

[Wayne Kline]

 Good suggestion Ray.
 
  When I moved to this QTH $$$$ was TIGHT... I went to the local Cable Co. and spoke to the line Boss.
He gave me all the cable ends I wanted.... I originally feed my   4 towers with 3/4" 75 ohm Catty hardline.
Give'em a try .

PS I also had permission to clean up there Stump  Strand  1/4 EHS   with most stumps below 120'  worked for me  :)
as I broke my guys with insulators ,
