New LongWire Antenna - What Type Wire?
Oh Pleeeze disease!
I paid 36.50 for my last roll almost a month ago.You must be shopping at some democrap store?? And as far as diameters and fractions....you can tell a difference on same length antenna's in recieving side by side ...a BIG NOTICABLE DIFFERENCE! Go pick up your food stamps and trade em in for another rock of crack. "David" wrote in message ... On Sat, 11 Mar 2006 11:53:41 -0500, "markey" wrote: Bull**** David! Buy yourself some WIRE! Get a roll of #12 teflon coated that will last for years and not break if your neihbor farts in the same direction its hanging....#12 stranded will take a lot of bending and flexing with the wind. Believe it or not a #12 wire antenna is easier to tune and actually picks up better than the hair sized crap that reminds David of his penis diameter. Plus #12 is easier to solder on !.... At 30$ to 40$ a 500 foot roll its a great investment! It comes in green...brown...white...grey...red...blue...oran ge ect. so you can hide it no matter what. I've done the #18 and # 22 Mistakes before.......Never again! I can break the stuff by stretching it with my bare hands. If your not on lifetime public assistance like David?....go for the good stuff! Whilst in principle a broader cross section results in lower Q, the diameters as a fraction of wavelength are virtually identical, Asshole. And a $500 foot roll of TFE coated wire costs way more than 30 or 40 clams. |
