I am still going to need at least 6 dB attenuation and that would mean at least
75 feet of RG58/U at a cost of just over 30 cents a foot. Compare that with
resistors which would total well under a dollar. Also, there is plenty of room
inside the linear cabinet to put even a very large resistor network let alone
one made from 2 watt resistors. However, not enough room for 75 feet of RG58/U
coiled up.
No brainer!

I thought this was for 222 mHz? RG-58 loss is about 8dB per 100' and you dont
need that much attenuation. If you want short try RG-174 or RG-178.
I had to go the other way with my HA-2 and HA-6 since I am driving them with
about 10 milliwatts out of a pair of TS-830's. Added a 2N5109 Class A buffer
amp which tickles the 12BY7's just fine.
