After the baluns using a coupler (splitter). However, using a coupler/splitter will cause a 3dB loss of signal, so try this....

Tie the two 2-bay's together with a chunk of 300ohm wire, then connect a balun in the middle of that 300ohm wire. Hope that makes sense.. .

I need to find first where I can get about 15' of bare 12g copper wire, tried home despot, they had 65,536 different kinds of wire, everything BUT what I wanted.  Thought okay, how about some Romex, 100' for $125 seemed a little much when I only need 15'. 

With a 2 bay do you cross the wires in the middle?

I bought 246' of 14-2 (14 AWG) for 60$ on Sunday. Can you make do with the lighter gauge? Heck, just strip it down and put two bare wires into a drill chuck and twist them up. The twisting will harden up the copper alright.

Wog: there is no wire crossing with the 2-bay

Don: 14 gauge will work
