There was/is better ways to make the connections, I used the wire nuts on mine for the center wire, and water clamps for the ground side...some of the other guys made there own connectors and put there wire together which worked really slick how they did it......the wire I ran is short compared to what someothers is using, some is 1500-2500ft long going up a mountain side..

It is really neat how this all works, I can't explain it, I just described it best I could, some of the other guys running it can, but longest contact I made on what I was running at the time was western Australia...

U all who has a long run from the antenna to the shack, this works great, don't no what the wire is called, but it will work, people here calls it pole to pole, it is some sorta old tv cable wire, never seen anything like this stuff before,....someday I may go with another long run to a antenna, probably have to use something else since I dont see that wire anymore laying around....
