<< We drug home 230 feet of Andrews 7/8 Heliax
 from the hamfest. Set up test with 25 watt
 signal on 146 mhz. Using Bird with proper 50
 watt slug. Dummy was a heath cantenna.
 Measured 25 watts into 230 feet of cable with
 just shy of 20 watts out.
 Are we in the ballpark for attenuation?

That's .97 dB loss or .42 dB/100'.  k7gco
