I've used about 80 feet (25m) of RG-223 cable (similar to RG-58 but better quality) with a Datum GPS unit. Worked fine. It has an amplified antenna, and the antenna was placed on top of a 5-story building with the receiver in the basement. -- --David Forbes, Tucson, AZ http://www.cathodecorner.com/ _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list time-nuts@febo.com https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
