Laying out at 16 element "Sterba" into Europe...

Getting the 450 line into the shack!!

1.- Should I float the 450 line into some 2 inch PVC
through the wall then mid-air it 5 feet to the tuner....??

2.- Or should I mount the 4:1 balun on the outside then bring co-ax
through
the wall ...then 5 feet top the tuner....

3.-..Or...??

TNX,
Bill




My 600 ohm open line comes in through a horizontally sliding basement
window.
I simply use fiberglass insulation on either side of the line and bring it
in with the
one conductor above the other. Then I use the sliding window to put
compression
on the insulation.
