[TowerTalk] Splicing LDF4

[D. Calder]

I bet it's real pretty too. LOL! You can twist RG58 center conductor and
shield
together and put a wire nut on them too and it will work.

Doesn't mean I would want to do it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

It will not be correct, but it works just fine at HF, thank you.

In the cell industry there is two splices on every run. Usually 1/2"
jumper
from the cabinet to the ground buss polyphasers where it then transitions to
1 5/8". It then goes up the tower to another 5'
or 6' 1/2" jumper to the antenna.

All connectors. If you try and splice it without one, you don't have any
business using the 1/2" to begin with. IT WILL not be correct.
