...lengthen the existing cable!
Splice an additional length of Teflon based cable to the existing one. No
matter what slice you choose to do, it's VERY unlikely to cause you trouble
in the HF range. Shrink tubing does wonders in this area!

I bought a couple of these to try out. I was preparing one for mounting in
the amp and found the attached coax was a little too short so needs to be
replaced. I've attempted to disconnect the coax from the relay but all
three lenghs of coax (COM, NC, NO) are attached via the same shield
connector that has three solder connections to the relay. I've tried
heating all three solder joints at once with a butane torch, but the relay
gets mighty hot and I think I may damage it. Any suggestions?
Also, are these considered "reed" relays?
Thanks,
Steve KK7UV
