[TowerTalk] Cable loss

[N0OEL@aol.com]

We currently are using 180 foot runs of RG8 at our Twin City FM Club Station 
located in a Public Building.    We had no choice.    We run 1200 watts PEP 
when we use the amp and 100 watts barefoot.    We get out like a bandit.    I 
would stick with the coax.    Besides, you really want all that RF radiating 
all over the place including in your home  (great TVI source!)?

In some cases 9913 works with a little less loss even on the lowbands!
