Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-30

Paul -


Find some 100% shielded 50 Ohm coax or use some RG6 quad shield. Maybe you'll need a filter and / or choke also. With all the above, I'm sure you can eliminate or greatly reduce the FM problem. You'll live longer too.


With good grounding (as Walt says) it won't be a big antenna - just a small quiet pipe conveying tons of delicious DX.

Why does no one understand about the fact I've got 3 FM transmitters above
me?
It gets into things 500 feet away... It'll sure as heck get into things 50
feet away acting as a big antenna.
