Just as a quick illustration of power losses using 100 metre lengths of 
various feeders:-

100 watts of RF on 1.8 MHz would yield:-

82.1 watts (0.86 dB loss) using Belden 8267 (RG-213)
86.5 watts (0.63 dB loss) using Wireman CQ-110 (RG-213)
93.6 watts (0.29 dB loss) using LDF 4-50, and
97.6 watts (0.11 dB loss) using LDF 6-50

These are for TopBand; at 28 MHz and above the figures are much more 
depressing for co-ax!

The attached link gives many options so as to ascertain losses for 
various feeders and at various frequencies:-
