I have a 18" x 30" aluminum frame window behind my desk where my shack is,
one of the old crank out type.  I got a piece of thick plexiglass cut to the
exact size of the pane.  The window glass is only held in by shims so prise
off the shims, slip out the glass, put in the plexiglass, chalk around it and
replace the shims.  Now you can drill appropriate holes for coax, and put
brass studs through the plexiglass for your open wire feed through.
