[TowerTalk] Using 75 ohm cable

[john at kk9a.com]

The ZD Engineering product was a combination CATV connector and transformer 
customized for your cable and frequency.  I believe W8ZD stopped 
manufacturing these in the early 00s and to my knowledge no one currently 
makes such a product.  I have some 220MHz ones, but that probably wouldn't 
be of any use to you

Don't see any that work on 2M, but was quite surprised to learn that Array
Solutions sells several products for HF that do just this.

 At one time there was a ham , ZD Engineering , I think who made and sold
matching transformers for using 3/4 inch CATV. I would like some to use on
my planned 6 meter EME array. I can't seem to find these anymore. Can
someone help me out?  Can I make my own?
