- Window pass throughs are ugly. Take the time and effort to put a hole in the wall and do it right. Even if your not an expert, try it. Don't give up. There are other people out there doing what you want to do to. Many will give advice without asking. Do yourself a favor: Listen.
Big Thanks to W5CYF for the inspiration: • How to Run Coax Throug...
Thanks to KC9EOU, KC9UGC, and K8VO and my brother Stu.
That's hilarious Scott. Yes many thanks to your XYL. 😊
You had me cracking up about your Bob Vila wife. :D Thanks for the info!
Cool easy way to do this, and I need to do it NOW that I passed my exam.
i wished my wife was like that, she doesnt like radios... Very good solution. 73 From Portugal
Researching on how to do this as well.....maybe I should just give up and hire your wife .....weathers great in west Texas 👍
When I do this, I drill through the mortar and not the brick. Very easy to return to original condition.
That’s right. Great advice.
Thanks for the great info. I’m attempting something similar .
You are amazing.
Love the dry humor!
I’m impressed! She is sure good at that drywall work! Wish I was! I desperately need to bore a big hole in my house and just can’t find the nerve! Something tells me mine should be a lot easier as mine is vinyl siding not brick. I know nothing about siding and that’s what’s got me! If I damage the siding then getting a proper color match replacement piece concerns me a good bit! I have 3” PVC and couple parts recommended to me to do this just researching a bit how to best deal with the siding. Thanks for the video 73 de Seth - W8FG
In the video I referrenced, John W5CYF suggested hiring an electrician to do the hole. I think that's what he did.
Haha, very entertaining and practical. I agree with unsightly window entry, most window are not sash windows in Australia, also most houses are brick and gyprock on the inside, no cinder block so it's easier. Glad it worked out in the end. 👍🍺🤓🇦🇺
That project really came out looking professional...can I borrow your wife????
5:50 Ladder Line is supposed to be kept away from other conductors, typically described as 'by twice its width.' It's not like coax in that regard. Yeah I know it probably works fine anyway; I'm here just trying to pass along info from the old days.
Think that wall is hard, I have 12 inches of steel reinforced concrete to go through. The bad part is we don’t know where the rebar is located within the wall……..
You still out there? I really would like to get to do more on HF and learn CW...it's the real deal. I'm out here in Kingman AZ and Elmers are hard to come by.
Please check out Cwops academy. They offer free classes and elmers to learn cw. I also recommend programs like morse machine and morse runner community edition. Links in my other videos. 73
