QRV Tech – February 2025 – A Short Discussion of Coax

It’s an unseen but critical component in every ham’s station – coax. But do you know how to select and handle coax, and why it matters? And how do you install and maintain coax? We won’t go into excessive detail but we will give you things to think about and investigate further.

If you can’t make the session, we will have it posted on the K5RWK website shortly after the presentation – but as you probably know, it’s always easier to ask questions live with all the experts available.  We look forward to seeing you then!
