I have followed with interest the thread treating feed line to use to connect repeater/duplexer/antenna, and I think I should replace the cables that are now in use on my 2-m repeater. But now the repeater TX and RX and a remote base use short cables to a feedthrough on the top of the cabinet. There are 90 degree elbows on the feedthroughs. Would it be better to eliminate these feedthroughs and elbows by just cutting a hole in the cabinet and routing the cables directly to the radios? What is common practice?
Thanks for your help. John AF4PD
