Yes you can. Just be aware that then the cable become more than a fraction of the wavelength you will get phenomenon that can interfere with your application.

I suggest that you use several cable cuts in parallel to build your capacitor. I have done that with reasonable good success.

Hi All

This might seem like a silly question, but is it possible to make a 150pf
capacitor out of RG-58? Thanks and I need one for an EFHW I am building.
