The local Amateur 2M repeater had a 200 foot tower next to the building.
The repeater was on the second floor of the building, but the cable went from
the bottom of the tower to the building underground.
Took the connector off of the repeater to do some service work and buckets
of water poured out of the hard line coax. Capillary action to suck it up to
the second floor, or simple push down the 200 foot of coax coming down the
tower? Either way I was not impressed with being all wet.
