Re: [amsat-bb] rotor jumpers

["Gene Davies AA6NP" <aa6np@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,
Here using Belden 9913FX for the jumpers and
Andrew VXL50 7/8 for the 200 foot runs to the
tower.
Note that after using the Belden 9913FX I found
that the Cable Experts brand of this feedline looks
like it is a little higher quality.

73,
