Tom, still requires a drill, but could you carefully drill 
through the window frame, or would they not lend themselves to 
that because they are too close to the window glass or something 
else? Jim

Subject: making antennas walk through walls!

Hi all,
Still fussing about getting coax/ground out of this old house.  I 
don't want
to drill through the 8 inch thick lathe and plaster plus redwood 
siding to
get coax outside.

All the near-by windows are of the "door like" hinged type which 
fit tightly
into frames.  Even if I left a gap for rg174 or the like, it'd 
have to take a
very sharp 90 degree bend.

I've seen about all the various feed through panels etc.  and 
none of them
seem to suit.

there seems to be 75 ohm flat coax, but not 52 ohm.

Any ideas I havn't mentioned?

Maybe I'm not desperate enough yet <GRIN
tnx&73
