In the light of expert testimony from Al, Dave, and indirectly from LB and Jim Lindsay, i rest my case. My advise was originally targeted towards those principally who said they'd experienced failures. It also was targeted towards anyone else who was interested. In 100% of the cases where i've experienced r.f. in the shack, i've resorted to the use of baluns. One case that comes to mind is a dipole or inverted vee, or such, fed with balanced line to just outside the shack window where coax then makes the transition and completes the journey into the shack. Not only does a "bead" balun or coaxial balun work to keep r.f. out of the shack in instances like this, but it also tends to choke off computer noises and tv blanking pulses from inside the house that would otherwise enter your receiver thru the center of the coax. 73 de Roy WA4DOU ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!
