Well I can give you a bit of information on cable lengths and 4 element steppers.

I took down the 4 element stepper at Ve6JO's place near Calgary last year.  The tower was a long way from the house. The cable length was 110 ft on the tower + 500 ft in a conduit + 40 ft in the house for a total length of 650 ft. The cable was four runs of #16 cable X 4 runs.  It worked all OK.  

I have the Stepper operating at VE6fi so will have to check what the power supply was/is.

For your information
