Ham Radio Coax Entry Panel - KF7P Metalwerks Review

[@rudert56]

Polyphaser arrestors are good if your antenna is dc grounded. My Mosley beam is NOT dc grounded so I went with the Morgan Manufacturing arrestors. They ground the shield and center conductor of your coax, thus keeping a constant static drain on your feedline and antenna.

Awesome video. Can’t wait for all installation videos.

With life settling down...I'm back!

LOL! An hour before I found this Review, I ordered an entry panel from Chris.

You’ll be happy with it!

Was looking for reviews of exterior entry points for coax fed antennas and found this. Great content, looks like a huge box, but can see the need if multiple antennas.

Good to see you back! 73 de AI0SE

What diameter is the conduit that runs from the entry panel back into the shack?

[@regsherwood4214]

How thick is the copper plate?

[@alvinramsey9372]

That really is very nice. And for the candy bonus oh yeah! Definitely a sweet bonus! Pun intended. But in all seriousness I do like the box though I do believe it would be better to have cutouts instead of the rubber grommets already installed opening every entry point. So as you did not have to worry about plugging open holes with something less than a steal. barrier

Coming to the party late as usual. Nice vid! :-)

"...at least LMR-600" I don't think so. LMR-400 is EASILY good enough for VHF/UHF (unless I suppose you have a long run - say, hundreds of feet. In that case, you might be able to measure some difference in loss. But I think it would work fine even then.)

Okay, that's it, I must say it if it hasn't been said before. You sir, are Drew Carey's doppelganger!!! That is friggin eerie!!! Hahahaha!

Can I charge him royalties for using my likeness? Ha!

@@K0LWC Hahahaha! Looking at how young you look, I'd say that he was probably here first. 🤣🤣🤣

Wear a lav mic.

Much nonsense. Simply unplug the cords when not using the radio.
