Hi all,
We are putting up new beverages for 160/80 at OH5Z.
I have a question regarding the feedline. We have to make
quite long runs like 1500 feet.
When looking for a low cost 75 ohm coaxial I found a Belden
RG6 type cable which is reasonably priced.
Here is a link for technical data

This cable has a copper covered steel inner conductor.
Is this an issue on low frequency like 1.8 MHz with long runs like 1500 feet?
Thanks for your help
73, Timo OG9X
