What ramifications if any are there to using a connector to extend the run for antenna coax? Or should I start over and run it as a single cable?


Thanks

Dennis,

If you are using BNC or TNC connectors and good quality cable you should
be able to extend almost any antenna cable in your airplane. A connector
adds .25-.5 db loss per connector. Anything should be able to handle
this extra loss without a detectable loss in performance.

You can "splice" the cable by Dennis Jones wrote:
