Yes, but this is manufactured and I thought N3QE was wanting to home brew the feedline. I don't think one person can control two strands of copperweld while they attach spacers! It wouldn't be near as difficult if they used spacers such as used by W7FG in his marketed 600ohm ladderline. For spacers, He uses sections of stiff plastic cut from tubing used in drip irrigation products, drills his holes, and then slits the end of the tube down to the hole so all one has to do is force the wire into the slit and on into the tight hole. No need for the difficult process of sliding spacers all the length of a run..... plus a heck of a lot cheaper, too. Ed K7AAT Absolutely correct! That would have been a lot easier. I even have a bunch of the tubing I could have used. I had the phenolic rods and could never find a use for them. For me, the fun of home brewing is using what is on hand and only purchasing what I can't find at home. Paul, KD7HB |
