Hello again, Bob. It is always nice to hear from you.
I think I noted that last in my reply, although I was way off on the characteristic impedance. 
Thanks for the correction.
BTW, for those who might be interested, I have a fairly big roll of RG-62, new, here in the 
original box. Maybe 100 feet, maybe more. I haven't looked at it in several years.
I own an SB-301/401 pair here and plan to use them "transceiver" wise, soon. I have always 
really liked the SB line.
