What is a Leaky Feeder?

A leaky feeder is a special feeder cable that is deliberately designed to radiate a controlled amount of signal out along its full length and also allow signals in to it. A leaky feeder effectively acts as a very long antenna and is typically used in shafts and along tunnels, e.g. underground where radio waves would usually have difficulty travelling.
