[TowerTalk] 300' of line - - wondering about hardline, 9913, CATV RG6 or RG11

[Tom Osborne]

Hi Duane

You might check the local Goodwill or other places like that.  I just
picked up a complete roll of RG-6 for less than $10.It is the type that had
2 coax lines fastened together with a zip line on it.  There is a LOT of
coax on that roll,

Works fine on my dipoles and loops.  73
