| Subject: | Re: A few questions, take 2 |
I dont get to input to very many of these questions - here is one I can comfortably
answer: Re question #7 running coax cables together - I have two coax cables
(RG400 - the expensive gold stuff) running together to a Garmin 480 and an
SL-30 - in nearly 11 years there has never been a problem - important thing
is to terminate the cables correctly - if youre not sure ask for help - and please
dont ask how i know that
