[TowerTalk] Parallel Coax

[J. Hunt]

Splitting TX power in half and through two lines would introduce additional loss  and impedance bumps all the additional connections, hardware and such.

Best approach is to use one good quality feedline.

Cheers,
James

 WOW, interesting logic!
 Try this idea:  Split xmit power in half and send each half down one of the lines.
 Then combine the two halves at the far end.
 Would you be better off?
 And why would doubling the line current and using two transformers make things better?
