Re: [IRCA] Cable connectors



I seem to recall that 'back in the day', Gordon Nelson was
concerned about keeping the feedlines from his loops as
short as practical for the application. Realizing that his
recommended feedline was car radio cable with the original
center conductor removed and replaced by insulated #22 or
so ( with the braid soldered together on each line about
every foot ) I wonder if it is in fact possible to get
what you're aiming for.

What might have worked better is to remove the single center conductor and replace it with a twisted pair of #24 or so wires. Then modify the loop output and receiver input for a balanced connection. Would have eliminated any ground loop issues.
