Could someone explain the 'cable loss' math?
In Response To: I've been impressed with a new product called The Wirie, so far... ()
OK, so I keep reading how important it is to have a short antenna cable for WiFi, and all the devices use either USB or ethernet cables for the long run. So, why is it OK for my VHF antenna cable to run all the way up the mast and for my dad's ham radio antennas to be out of the house and all the way across the yard? I'd google it, but I don't even know what I'd be googling.
