Jim, this is also from your white paper.  Cables such as RG-223, RG-141 and 
RG-400. All double shielded and the size of RG-58. 

Q: I have a high power, multi-transmitter station. Can I use RG58 or RG8X 
between my

transceiver and amplifier?

A: Smaller coax cables like RG58 and RG8X provide less shielding than larger 
coax, thanks

to the higher resistance of their shields. To minimize inter-station 
interference, use coax

with a beefy copper shield for all cables.
