Horsepuckey, unmitigated or otherwise, does not constitute a cogent
review of the technical information presented. It would be much more
enlightening to all if the respondent had replied with a discussion of
the technical merits as he sees them from his own perspective of
theoretical and practical experience, rather than to launch into the
vitriol of an ad hominem attack. This type of attack is often a shield
for the attacker's own ignorance or incompetence! I presented the
specs; he, for his part, should show how and in what way they are not
applicable, along with his own recommendations, especially with
practical examples of received and transmitted power levels and cable
lengths. It would also be interesting to see, from his vantage point,
what testing he has done on the effect of signal leakage in coax on the
their concomitant creation of sidelobes resulting in attenna pattern
distortion and signal dropout. Only in this way may all who are
interested in the proper selection of cabling for their aircraft be
able to intelligently make, what is for them, the proper choice of
cable and connector type based on performance and economics. We report,
they decide!
