Cables …

Finally, after many months of procrastination, I revamped the complete set of coax cables that I use in my radio station. Thanks to Paddy / VU2PEP for pointing me to the right source for my cable requirement. I replaced all the aging lengths of RG-213 and RG-58 with LMR-400. Also took this opportunity to mount my KK1L 2 x 6 Antenna Switch.

AntSwitch-1  AntSwitch-2

This ensured that I now have only two runs of cable into the shack. I used LMR-200 for antenna terminations and in the shack as it it easier to work with. Used crimp connectors and found them to be a breeze to work with.
