Re: Max coax length for HF?

Thanks!

The stuff I've got is RG-8/U which isn't listed on there. But it looks like I won't be having a serious problem with it. Hopefully the run is more like 100 feet but I want 200 to give myself some leg room.

Should be interesting!

RG-8 is great for HF, but be careful with it at those lengths on VHF.. Some serious loss the higher in frequency you go...
