Way to go jimcarrey. Bud aluminum is works well too. All you newbies out there need to remember that when you install one of these babies in a system that you need to rap the tape real tight around the cable and the aluminum. You might want to practice the taping procedure by taking one end of a roll of duct tape, tucking it behind one ear then in circular motion start wrapping it around your head and wrap your head tightly to a telephone pole. This will assure that you won't be causing too much of a nuisance.
