1-5/8" Heliax for sale:

The McMinn Co Amateur Radio Club offers for sale the following:
3 rolls of 1-5/8" Heliax cable with Huber Suhner EMP Protector / 7/16 
Connector on the "bottom" end.

There is approximately 190-200 feet on each roll of cable. The cable is 
used, but in good condition, still sealed with the connectors intact. 
The cable does have hoisting grips on the "top" end, and grounding whips.

NOTE: This cable is not a stolen hack job. This cable was professionally 
removed from a tower by a cell carrier and donated to our club.

The cable is $350 per roll, equiped as mentioned. This is a huge 
bargain. A roll this size new would sell for $12 per foot, minus 
connectors! That amounts to a savings of over $2000!

1-5/8" Heliax is rated at 0.297 db loss per 100 feet @ 200MHz, and will 
withstand 11.3 KW.

We also have several snap in hangers for the cable, as well as the tower 
leg brackets for the snap ins. The snap-ins will be $0.50 per piece, and 
the tower leg brackets $1.00 each.

This is a NO SHIP item. Cable can be seen, purchased and picked up at 
the McMinn Co Amateur Radio Club Hamfest, July 21st, in Athens TN. See 
www.mcminnarc.com for more info. If you wish to purchase before the 
hamfest, contact Scott Duckworth, NA4IT, (423)263-1989 or email 
kg4fzr at yahoo.com and include "Heliax" in the subject.
