[TowerTalk] Rotor loop coax choices ?

Thanks all for the comments and suggestions.  Re the length I typically run the "rotor loop" all the way to the antenna feed point (rather than just using it to by pass the rotor.)  

The suggestion to use short rotor loops does have a lot of merit if I am going to buy RG 214 style coax or something similar.   

I'll ponder the shielding issue some more.   Using high quality RG 213 style coax from before the rotor to the antenna feed point may well be the way to go if I don't want to pay for the double shielded cable with silver covered conductors.  

Best regards
