My Thunderbolt, PSU and antenna should arrive this week. I would like
to put out it outside my shack, which is an upstairs room in a bungalow.
Outside of the plasterboard walls of my room is a big empty roof space. Can
I put the TB in there, with it's PSU and feed the antenna wire out
under a ridge tile and have the antenna itself on an aluminium bracket
with a clear sky view on the ridge of the roof.? It would mean a cable
from the output of the TB back into my room of about 10 or so feet.
Anything I need to watch for, does the PSU run particularly warm? How
much current do they draw off the mains, it's not going to cost a bomb
leaving it on 24 hours a day, is it? Thanks.
