Default Coax entry into house

Ralph Mowery posted for all of us...



In article , says...

Hi all, I want to run a coax into to my house bedroom because I'm disabled.
I recall reading having a short piece of electrical pipe placed through the
wall and sealed after the coax is run. Any other ideas? How much of a tail
should brought into the room?


You may want to try something like this from MFJ. It is a board with a
few coax feed through connectors that fits into the bottom of a window.
YOu raise the window about 4 inches and place the board with the
connectors in it. It sells for about $ 60. YOu could make your own by
getting a board and a long feed through coax barrel fitting, especially
if you only need one or two coax connections.

If you move or go to another room, just pull the board out and there
will not be any hole to repair.

Look for a MFJ 4601

This link has a video showing how it works.

Thanks for the reply; not to be critical but I don't know how to seal the
gap where the the lower and upper sashs' are offset.
