Homebrew Hexbeam Center Post with Coax Inside PVC Tube


With a little patience this can be done and the photos are here to prove it.  This is for my second hex beam.  The first photo has most of the daisy chained coax inside.  This the connection for 17m.


The second photo shows the long tube ready to be cemented.


The third photo shows the finished 20 meter connection as well as the PL259 to install the feed line.




Here is the assembled centerpost.  The only thing missing is the cap with the eyebolt.  A little silicone caulk to make sure all joints are sealed and this assembly is watertight.
