Technically the tuner at the antenna is better, but with good coax and
low bands it's hardly worth the effort, but look up the chart in the
handbook for additional loss Vs SWR at a given cable loss. Basically,
at 160, 75, and even 40, it makes little difference whether the tuner
is in the shack or remote. Unless it's a long run, if you are using
good, low loss coax, the difference is likely only a few tenths of a
db. Look up transmission line basics (20.1) in the current 2014
book. This chart has been in there for years, so if you have a
different version, just look gor transmission line basics.
YES, YES, YES.
