I had thought of that though. At one time someone made a thin wall sleeve for the purpose of lining holes in exterior walls to push coax through. If you drill through CBS walls and hit a hollow pocket you will have a problem getting the coax through if it curls up inside the pocket, hence the sleeve. The local ham radio outlet didn't have any of the sleeving though. (Wonder where I saw it...?) Radio Shack sells something of that sort. It comes with a plug at each end, with an RG-58-sized hole in the plug. The sleeve itself isn't _quite_ big enough to pass a PL-259, which I found disappointing. This is amusing , I do this stuff a lot ( Im a cabler and electrian) and there are better ways to do it , try not to make a simple thing too had guys . |
