[TowerTalk] Need help estimating cable length of DXE 400 MAX

I am involved in selling items to benefit the estate of a SK.
One of the items is a unused roll of 400MAX cable that is still
in the plastic cling wrap it was shipped in.  I know there is
at least 100 feet of cable there but I think there is possibly
50 or even 100 feet more.  I don't want to unroll the cable to
measure it and get it all kinked or dirty.  The roll weighs
17 pounds.  I've checked the DXE web site but can't find anything
that gives the weight per foot.  The roll is approximately 8 inches
inside diameter, 16 inches outside diameter, and contains 55 to 60
turns.  The packing label on the roll says DXE400MAXDCU200.
Can anyone help me with a good estimate of the length?

thanks, 73, Phil   W5BVB
