Re: [Elecraft] W2 control wire length?

I don't know, but it would be easy to try with a coil of Ethernet cable 
and some resistors.
The question is, why do you want to do this? You can easily compute the 
real SWR and power at the feedpoint based on the reading in the station 
and the transmission line loss from the cable specs.

Hi,

I have a W2 with an HF coupler and I am entertaining the idea of putting it
out in a waterproof container just before the feed-point of my antenna
(non-resonant vertical). The run is about 75’. Does anyone know if there is
a limit on the cable length? If so, what is it?

Thanks and 73.

[Elecraft] W2 control wire length?
