[TowerTalk] Rotor Cable size

[cqtestk4xs at aol.com]

Tthe manual for the T2X give the suggested size wire for various lengths, but all my stuff is packed up in a container and heading to the mainland.  My guess is the 2-14 would be sufficient.

Sorry for the extra bandwidth I forgot to include this with my feedline 
uestion...
I will be turning the PRO57B with a Tailtwister , and am wondering what size 
otor cable I should use , the run from the shack to the rotor is about 250' , 
exas Towers has several to choose from , my guess is that I need one of the two 
larger sizes.
they list these two larger ones on their website:
R83, (2-#14, 6-#18)
84, (2-#12, 6-#16)
thoughts/experiences ?
