It still has a gap between the slashes. I assume that it's because the second slash is drawn offset from the first slash producing a visible gap...
If you want a single, very thick slash then you will have to stack several very close to each other and let the plotted lineweight merge them together, or build a specific shape. Just don't forget to distribute the compiled shape file or face the wrath of those who inherit your DWGs.

Sorry.... I thought you meant you wanted no gap in the through-it-all line -- it's the minus signs that cause that [the "pen up" portions] -- rather than no gap between the slashes. You can go with dgorsman's suggestions, or ir .TTF fonts are viable in complex linetypes [I haven't tried them], maybe you can use some character from Wingdings, or a rotated "pipe" or underscore or capital I in Swiss, or something.

Are you sure taking the negatives out doesn't do that? I haven't loaded it in and tried it, but I think this should work:
A,1.2,[TRACK1,ltypeshp.shx,S=.15,R=-45,X=0,Y=0],.2,[TRACK1,ltypeshp.shx,S=.15,R=-45,X=0,Y=0]
Or, consider equalizing the end situations by splitting the line portion around the shape parts:
A,.6,[TRACK1,ltypeshp.shx,S=.15,R=-45,X=0,Y=0],.2,[TRACK1,ltypeshp.shx,S=.15,R=-45,X=0,Y=0],.6
