[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 196381, member: 199791"] Just moving my post here before I get told off.... :D I was looking through the wardrobe of junk last night and I found the original cable from my Magmount (still with the giant screw-on plug), I guess I could use that then? So, I'd have to putthe cable Outdoors then, or could I get away with what I used to do and have it indoors from the highest ceiling in my house (which incidentally is just under the roof)? So each section of cable needs to be about 2.25M long (give or take a few CM's for the SWR trimming) and fitted basically hanging (not literally, but for arguments sake), but which bit goes on the top half (shielding or Core)? Also, I need to dig out one of my 2 CB's, hope I find the one which I covered with Blue Vinyl stuff (used for signwriting on Vans etc), I salvaged that from a scrapyard, I can't believe some numpty would leave such a nice CB in a scrapper!!! :eek: [/QUOTE]
