[amsat-bb] Re: 75 ohm CATV Cable on 70 cm

["kc6uqh" <kc6uqh@xxxxxxx>]

I have used the 1/2 " hardline type with disk type dielecrtric for several 
years. A 1/4 wave of brass hobby tubing driven over the copper center 
conductor and soldered at both ends solves the 50/75 transition problem. 
Used the Hardline splice connector with homade made mechanical fitting 
adapted to a N type female connector.
The larger sizes are available as remenants on a large spool very cheep!
