Blue Sea systems makes a circuit wizard app that you can put in your voltage and you’re needed amperage and it’ll tell you exactly what size cable to use for a less than 3% voltage drop. I use it when I’m building my batteries.
And what was the song? Hello, Bueller... Bueller.... It sounds familiar but I was never a fan of that kind of metal. Play metal on the Godin in the background. That guitar is beautiful.
Hey, great video. I'll be pointing new guys to this one. Ever thought about doing a quick Heliax video? I know a lot of guys couldn't afford it, or want to deal with it, but I run into many people who wonder what it is etc. I'm the crazy 250' 7/8 guy, but yes I'm a weirdo.
@KM6LYW Got a great deal on it. Now the ic 9700 to go with it will take the family a while to pay for, but my General Class daughters like got dogs anyway. Lol.
Conduit is always a good idea. When you need to run another cable a couple years later it's so nice to just pull it through in a few seconds.
Very good information. I did learn something so that is a plus. Thank you for sharing.
Good information! No comments? Guess everyone is out playing field day!

incredibly sexy cable, with the price to go with it! 50ohm, i'd like to see the attenuation table.. $4 per foot for half inch?

I need to switch to LMR400, as my HF antenna is currently on 100 feet of RG8.
i use 100' of rg8x myself ... for HF, its not too bad
Can we get the link to the attenuation chart please?

Even at 2x, that was DOOM!
OMG! winner ! winner! you vastly exceeded all expectations! well played my friend. Its the first level of Doom 1.0.
I use about 3ft of ?rg-174? To get an antenna out a car window for my HT and it does better than the antenna inside the car attached to the HT.
Sounded like 'I am murloc' 😅
I use rg213 it is stronger and last for years and not much more per meter than rg8x
obscure? Doom E1M1 good gravy pick a hard one
you guys are killing me, thats exactly right! is it our age group?
"UL" has many standards. So check what standard is referenced if a product says "UL Listed"
DOOM
yes!!! winner! Doom 1.0.
