[TowerTalk] Using Coax as Ladder Line

[Roger NØVR]

Try Lew McCoy's book "Lew McCoy On Antennas". He mentions this method of
feeding ladder line on page 39/40.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Using Coax as Ladder Line

I saw something somewhere about using coax as ladder line to get out of your
house.  Seems like the center leads of a pair of coax were connected as if
they were the ladderline at the tuner and the shields tied together and then
to ground at the station.  The ends outside of the house then had the two
center leads tied to the real ladderline and the shields tied together at
that point also.  

Where was the article on this or did I dream it all?
