Fred:
In answer to a couple of your questions, I have had good luck with RG8X
jumpers for inside the shack here. With my new amp set-up, I do use RG213
jumpers, but there are some who would say that's not totally necessary.
I'm sure you might be able to get a better price somewhere else, but my best
source for new jumpers is Ham Radio Outlet. What I often do, though, is
look for folks selling jumpers at swaps. There, if you're careful, you can
get good ones for much less money than you would fine at HRO or other
dealers.
The Cross-country Blind Ops Net is this afternoon at 2100 Z. That
translates into 1 o'clock Pacific, 2 o'clock Mountain, 3 o'clock Central, or
4 o'clock Eastern. We will be on 14.258 MHZ or up, depending on QRM.
Hope to hear you on the net if you can check in.

Subject: Need Misc ham info
For years I have used RG213 coax jumpers as I was using an amplifier. I
traded the amplifier off so I no longer need the heavier coax jumpers. I am
thinking of smaller and more flexable jumpers such as RG8X. What do you
guys use or suggest? Also, does anyone know of a wall wart capable of
handleing the LDG AT1000 auto. antenna tunner? Using an external power
supply takes up a lot of room. Do any of you guys know of anyone that makes
good jumpers at a reasonable price? I am to old now to get back in to
soldering myself. I will appreciate any info.What time and frequency does
the net take place today. If I am not tied up at the time, I will try to
make it. Thanks much,
Best wishes,
