[TowerTalk] Series Remote Coax Switches?

[Tim Heger]

Hi to all,

I have a question about the use of remote coax switches, and am sure someone has done this before, but I have no experience with it.  I presently have one tower in use (175' coax run from house to tower), and am using a remote coax switch at the base of the tower to feed a number of antennas.  I have a second tower built, and will also have a number of antennas on it.  I would like to use one of the outputs on the coax switch at the first tower to feed the coax switch on the second tower (140' from first to second tower).  This would save the expense of a second 175' of coax from the house to the first tower.
Have others fed antennas through two remote coax switches?  Had any problems doing this?
I'm not sure if this is a good idea, or if I should just spend the extra on coax and have a completely seperate run from the house to the second tower.

Tnx - 73,
