Bert,

The coax run is really a mess.  I use three 25' sections of RG-59 from Radio 
shack (the cheap stuff) and connect them with two barrel connectors.  For  
SW, NW  I need all 75' of coax.  NE and SE I can get by with only 40'.  I 
drilled a hole through the wall of the house and installed a plasic tube to 
pass the coax through.  I have 2 RG-59 cables, one for the H-800 active 
antenna and a ground wire (AG-12) to ground the radio and Zap Trapper 
lighting surge protector.  I need to get some RG8, the type that can be 
buried, then run the cable under the house and  bury it outdoors.  I believe 
Patrick uses this method and it works great for him.  I'll try to take some 
pictures with the digital camera Monday before I head out to the race track.
